No, it has nothing to do with the discontinued
email reflector, which involved using an email client (not the Fastmail web interface) at work.

You have a choice when sending a message on whether to use an email client or the Fastmail website to create the message. The system you use controls how an email is addressed. So Fastmail has no control how Apple Mail creates the From address in your reply to a message. The only things that Fastmail can do are based on the From address matching a Fastmail Personality and the settings you have made for that personality. If your email client doesn't set the From address properly, Fastmail has no choice but to send emails as specified when using their SMTP.

The
Advanced>Personalities screen controls the default settings controlling how messages are created and sent. You can specify a certain personality which is used by default on the Compose screen. You can only do this when the address does not contain a wildcard. Choose a certain personality and use the
Make default Personality button in the upper right.
I don't think there is a way to remind yourself to enter a specific address when starting a new message in the Compose screen. As I said, the replies can be made automatic (from the subdomain address which was used in the message sent to you).
