Thanks for that hint.

I run postfix in local only mode and configured it accept any messages, as 
posted here
https://askubuntu.com/questions/206766/local-only-sendmail-that-delivers-all-mail-to-a-directory
, and added local account to Evolution.
So receive e-mails I sent with git send-email in my local account
and I can drag-and-drop them to outbox and synchronize.
This seems to work.

I understand and agree your concerns about Exchange server to manipulate 
e-mails.
