Approve/Deny outgoing e-mail ?

[Jason Gottschalk]

Hello Julian,

Looking for someone who can implement this for me.  I have been trying
for two weeks and cannot make it work.

I've added a rule to archive.rules that successfully appends the
messages in question to a mbox file, but it still delivers the
message.

It has become a real thorn in my side!
