Flag messages where reply-to is different from the sender?

I know, I'd just like it to raise a red flag or banner somewhere. In 
corporate environments, i see reply-to hardly being used

Think it's a similar red flag like 'emails originating outside the 
organization'   (speaking of which can MailScanner flag that at the top of 
an email rather than at the bottom?)
