We had exactly the same problem, but it was provoked differently.  All
worked happily for us for some time until our IT Dept upgraded our Trend
Scan Mail virus scanner and then our 'via RT' FROM stuff stopped working,
and it all came from the "real" from address.

After much prodding Trend produced the following registry key change which
their software upgrade apparently reset:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\Current Control Set\Services\
MSExchangeIMC\Parameters  :

       Reroute ViaStore key altered from 1 to 0


This may not work for you, but you could try it.  Reboot required.
