Any MUA which does not also try to be half-MTA can do this. (mutt, elm, mail, and any other program which pipes the message to a real MTA) However, the original question was how to prevent spam from being generated, not how to deal with it after-the-fact. There really isn't any good solution other than teaching people how to behave in the first place. -D -- If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.
