Being able to apply filters to messages before they are sent sometimes really 
makes sense. But does hashcash support really make sense? My problem with spam 
is that spamassassin still doesn't catch all of it. Usage of hashcash can't 
improve this. The usage of hashcash can only help lower the percentage of false 
positives. But so far no message which was sent with KMail (i.e. User-Agent: 
KMail/x.y.z) was falsely classified as spam. So I think the usage of hashcash 
will have exactly no effect.

I will close this wish as duplicate of wish 48938 because once pre-sending 
filtering is implemented it can easily be used to add HashCash headers to your 
outgoing messages. I don't think it makes sense to add any hashcash specific 
code to KMail.
