Probably unable.  Windows is Easy, that means you don't have to know
anything to admin it.  At least till something unusual happens.

Take a look at the headers on an internal message.  I bet you find some
additional headers like: From: and Reply To: that are being stripped by
the mail server.

Can you load sendmail or qmail on your UNIX box and bypass them.  You
don't have to handle incoming email, and you don't want the machine
listening on port 25, but you may be able to have your own machine
handle mail connections and bypass them entirely.
