No, there is NO way to do it if Outlook is connected as Exchange client. All 
settings from send format are silently ignored. Registry settings too. Mail 
format depends only on exchange sever settings.

I don't have to, subscribed users have, and as I wrote above, they cannot 
configure anything in it. They of course don't have access to exchange server 
settings and contacting exchange server admins is useless, so I need another 
way.
