Hi Malcom,

I think this really needs to be a built-in feature that is able to pop 
up a warning dialog, similar to the existing attachment warning.

I did try adding a rule on the "Drafts" virtual mailbox:

Conditions:
[any] of the following are true
   [any address] [contains] noreply
   [any address] [contains] no-reply
   [any address] [contains] do not reply

Actions:
[Play sound] [bark]
[Set Tag/Keyword] [Bad Address]

However, it doesn't work as expected; it appears that new compositions 
don't go into the Drafts virtual mailbox until they are sent or saved, 
so the rule can't be triggered until much later than one would desire.
