You do have another option: Change email programs. Or lean on whoever
is in charge of this one, saying that it's failing in a significant
way.

Also, what security do your sysadmins gain by lying about mail
clients? Stripping the header would gain just as much. Lying just
makes your network uncooperative at best, and possibly will be seen as
malicious. If you're using a mail client with known vulnerabilities,
*FIX THAT*, don't try to hide behind a fallacious header. Otherwise
it's not security, it's laziness.
