Yes. It will work for any mail going through MailScanner.
Just be very careful you don't do anything "dodgy" with this option which
might have severe legal implications for you (depending on your country's
privacy laws). I added the feature because someone wanted it, and they
convinced me that there are legal uses of it. In the UK I wouldn't touch it
with a 10 foot barge pole!
