Would the system you a building support plugins for
other types of checks? I have been thinking that it
would be good to digitally sign messages as they leave
a company, then have software that checks for the
signature on the receiving end.

This way when you receive an email there is a way to
quickly determine if it did originate from that source.
If the digital signature does not match you know the
message should not be trusted right away.

    This is an entirely different service you're asking for...
    If you want such a thing, I'd recommend starting up a
    derived project (the code for this one is / will be open
    source, after all).

    It's not something I've been planning, but I don't think it
    would be too difficult for someone to add. One would have
    to build a plugin that listens for the SMTP.DATA.BODY
    context data and throws appropriate tokens (META.SIGNED=Y or
    something like that). There are some sample plugins if
    you're interested in looking at this further.
