It wouldn't make any difference. Stuart is likely within an intranet that allows outbound connections only via the web on the standard http and https ports. Mail is handled by the intranet mail server. Save for a couple odd ports for chat, all other ports are likely blocked, ruling out using a local SMTP server or any other remote SMTP service. The only thing I would suggest if Stuart is really motivated, is to use HTTP tunnel. It allows communication via HTTP with other servers and port numbers. It's what I used to connect to my IMAP server at home, until the University sysadmins decided to allow port 142 for IMAP. I'm not sure why they haven't allowed the port for IMAPS.
