The emails I receive from Nagios are from Root User. Is there any way to change this?

What do you have as the "Send Mail From" address in
Also, do you have the hostname set on your server to something other than localhost or localhost.localdomain?

the "send from" should be a full email address.
Also, you should set your hostname to be the actual machine name in /etc/sysconfig/network , such as
nagiosxi.yourdomain.com
