I don't think you can detect the mail client.

And by the way, I seriously doubt you could detect the mail client BEFORE they sent 
you a message.

I can see from the message you posted to the list that you're using "Microsoft 
Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.5.2650.21" as your outbound SMTP server, 
however that doesn't tell me anything about the actual mail client you're using.
