None of these proposals will "stop" phishing in any way. No more so than
"Are you sure you want to open executables" dialog boxes will stop
viruses. And yes, I include the future time when we have working

Though I can say, if you want to reduce phishing, don't try and base it on
updated MUAs. Focus on the MTA.
