There is a brilliant "are you sure?" addon for Thunderbird. It's called Torpedo by secuso.org. Not only does it make you wait 3 seconds and confirm before following any link to a domain that you haven't already gone to a few times before, it shows the URL in a way that makes it clear where you're going (e.g. https://paypal.com.evil.com/blah would show evil.com in bold), and if the URL is something like a tinyurl, it'll fetch the real URL and display that instead. It's a fantastic solution to phishing that all GUI MUAs should be doing by default but aren't. cheers, raf
