No, this is not possible. Well, many things are possible in MailMate if 
one is willing to go sufficiently low level. It might be possible to add 
a specifier to the `#unquoted` virtual header, e.g., named `question` 
which could use a regular expression to match questions. Then you would 
be able to do like this in a condition:

     “Unquoted Body Text ▸ Question” exists

(Disclaimer: Theoretical solution. Never tried in practice and even if 
it worked then it *might* be very slow.)
