If mail never leaves the server, but it just sent from one Outlook user 
to another, SMTP restrictions do not apply.

Even if the mail leaves the server, the sending and receiving servers 
may negotiate a line-length extension, as the definition I
gave supports.

You can't just assume that any mail server does, however.
