Just configure your mailer to include the correct address in the
``Reply to:'' header, and every mailer on the net will use that
automagically.

My first guess would be that the DOS configuration doesn't install a disk
cache (such as SmartDrv), while Windows 3.11 loads its built-in 32-bit
cache (if you enable 32-bit file access). Please read the system
configuration advice in section 3.9 of the DJGPP FAQ list (v2/faq202b.zip
from the same place you get DJGPP) and configure your system as it
suggests.

The listing of CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT would be nice (in case you
cannot solve the problem after reading the FAQ).
