fche suggested this, too. It will be a little extra work to warn people
while also accepting the message but it is doable. In fact, I wonder if
that just shouldn't be the default from now on. It would be pretty
irritating to receive this message every time you send email.
The only problem with allowing them but complaining to the sender is
that it would be harder to figure out when one slipped by the filter.
The fact that something hit the disclaimer filter shows up in syslog
output now but there is no way to know when something should have been
caught but wasn't.
