I don't remember if I reported it, but I saw that behavior on a zon a while ago (since I was playing a fire sorc with my wifes zon).
The fire mastery of the caster applies as does the warmth bonus. At least on the character screen of the recipient.
However when I used a L99 sorc with maxed enchant, warmth, and FM (something like 598 min damage added). The damage did not seem to add at all to the zon. She killed some players 8 NM zombies in around 5 hits each with enchant on. After waiting for it to wear off, she found some more, and killed them in around 5 hits each, though she missed more, making the AR bonus seem to be there. Of course I haven't checked the fire resistance of a hell zombie yet but 500 extra damage on a 18-58 base damage bow should be noticable. It could also be that the 99 is bugged since it was an edited char. The other sorc was started at L1, as was the zon.
So, I think more testing needs to be done to see if it is just a char screen thing, or if there is something going on with the actual damage.
