  Your contact form is not authenticating as a user so email is being sent from the cPanel account's ID. You'll need to configure your contact form to use an actual email account.

  Are using a standard HTML form or are you using some kind of CMS?

  Assuming your mail forms are using the standard mail() function of PHP to pass the mail to the sendmail binary for delivery - you can use the mail.force_extra_parameters to force the envelope from address. This can be applied in a custom php.ini for the account that runs the mail form, or as a simple addition of the -f as the 5th parameter of the mail() function. If you are running cloudlinux alt-php you can set the -f paramater in cPanel in the domains 'Select PHP Version' >> PHP Options >> mail.force_extra_parameters value.
