I've had back-and-forth bouts on various grammatical issues, where I do it right, and the partner changes it to the wrong, and I change it back. Of course, nothing is said, but I don't really feel I can do anything that the passive-aggressive way. Thoughts?

If you have a high strung or otherwise self-important boss - change it and if it is noticed, blame the original error on the boss' assistant's typing - you will all know who the dope it, but em saves face and will not fuss at you.
Or if you are like me, tell them they screwed up and remind them that they need to let their assistant proof their work before it goes out.
