Is it possible for MIAB to tag emails that originate from external servers? via subject line `[EXTERNAL]` or embed in the message body?

This link [https://www.howtoforge.com/add-disclaimers-to-outgoing-emails-with-altermime-postfix-debian-etch](https://www.howtoforge.com/add-disclaimers-to-outgoing-emails-with-altermime-postfix-debian-etch) shows how to do it via postfix hack. I am not keen on modifying MIAB that carries an imminent break with future upgrades.

Thanks!

John
