    Sendmail 8.12 will have milters enabled, and a milter could do that.
    Milters are allowed to add and delete headers, as well as modify the
    body of the message.  Milters are run on all messages received through
    the SMTP interface.  The example milter code provided with the sendmail
    8.12.0.beta12 release could have a fork()/exec()/wait() added pretty
    trivially to do this in an outside program (so you avoid having to write
    a thread safe message signer).
