Is this a sendmail problem? or DU?

We created an account called "The_DEC" for sending out emails, the
Full Name is set as "Accounting Department".

The_DEC:Nologin:613:15:Accounting Department:/usr/users/The_DEC:/bin/csh

If I type:

mailx -s test ggallen_at_slackinc.com
test
test
.

When I receive the email it is from "The_DEC_at_slackinc.com", but the Name
isn't there.

When I created an account called "the_dec" with the same Full Name, when the
same line above was entered the emails were from

"Accounting Department <the_dec_at_slackinc.com>"

Is this possibly because, sendmail downcases everything, then can't find
the_dec? or
is another issue involving Digital Unix?
