No, it has to be sent inline, because it's an integral part of our
review process to have patches sent inline, so that people can comment.

If your company IT department is unable to understand which tools the
company engineers need to properly contribute to open-source
communities, I'd say you should create a GMail account, and use that as
the SMTP server to send your e-mail. I believe that's what a lot of
people do when they have to work in hostile environments.

Best regards,

Thomas
