As others have alluded, this is the problem. Â When you send email via the EWS
connector, the message is handed to the msexchange server in a base64-encoded
blob, then msexchange takes it apart and mangles it according to server-set
rules/configuration before sending it out to recipients, then another level of
mangling happens if msexchange needs to convert it into SMTP email. Â It's a
mess, which has nothing to do with evolution, and everything to do with the EWS
protocol and msexchange.
