If anyone else is interested, I figured out an easier workaround than forcing
evolution to send through SMTP.  It appears that having the character encoding
set to utf-8 is a flag that causes msexchange to base-64 encode the email.  I
set my default composer encoding to iso-8859-1 (ascii), and now it sends plain
text.
