Problem with Outlook 2010 (SMTP AUTH LOGIN)

I have to connect one customer Outlook 2010 to a remote server on which I have either no right, neither way to talk to the sysadmin.
This is the thing, after installing and reviewing the logs on Wireshark:
Outlook Express:
HELO machine
AUTH LOGIN
username base64 encoded
password base64 encoded
mails go through.
Outlook 2010:
HELO machine
AUTH DIGEST-MD5
response from server
Outlook sends just a *
AUTH LOGIN
password base64 encoded
So... I can send mails in the same domain, but can't send outside, it gives me a relay denied message.
My point is... Why the h**l Outlook 2010 doesn't send the username AND the password?!
It can never login the right way :| With other versions of Outlook it works fine, and with OE works great, it auths and allows to send mail to a different domain.
I've googled and nothing worked. I'm pretty sure that I'm not alone with this one.
My last resort will be to configure a local proxy/server that relays to the original one :|
Any help would be appreciated. Sorry my bad english as is not my natural language.
Thanks.
