Both look good.

Check.

That is incorrect (as pointed out below). The 'search' parameter would
have the same argument as 'domain.'

^^^^^^^^^
That search line is doing that.

OK... So, what is your question? The DNS is not finding 'aaa,' but you
say it should not... Where is the problem?

Seems to be a little language barrier here. So you are really not
asking about DNS problems at all? Rather, you are asking how to get
your sendmail to print your email address correctly so other people's
MTAs accept your mail?
The most simple way to do this is to go into your /etc/sendmail.cf and
find the line that starts with 'DM<whatever>' and change it to
'DMsofrecom.fr' and your outgoing email will have a return address of
'yveline.josserand@aaa.sofrecom.fr'.
