Indeed it does.  AFAICT, there's nothing you can do about it.

That's how gmail works.  It always forces the "from" address to be
your gmail account.  IIRC, there's supposed to be a way to set the
"reply-to" address to a different address as long as that address is
one of the one's you have "authenticated".

I don't think there is a solution other than use a different SMTP
server.
