You are correct! I can use the default 'Remedy' mailbox to send email and have the FROM and REPLY TO addresses dynamically set to the user that last modified the ticket. Now, I don't need to create additional mailboxes in the 'AR System Email Mailbox Configuration' form. Stephen is happy.
The other solution also worked - disabling the 'AR System Email Mailbox Configuration Check Duplicates' filter. Thanks to all.

I have specified a from and reply-to address in several filters/escalations, all works as expected.
