I'm also behind a corporate Exchange Server, which I access using fetchmail (via ssl/imap) for incoming and nail (via smtp) for outgoing. It does not currently convert anything, but I seem to recall having had a similar problem a few years ago, following an "upgrade". It can be fixed, provided the server administrators are sufficiently motivated, but I have no clue what they had to do to get it to behave itself.
