I seriously doubt that there are a lot GUI or TUI MUAs available for BSD or Linux that do that by default. Just mentioning one, Thunderbird and then claiming every other does, too, is weak. I'm not aware of one. Evolution doesn't, Sylpheed doesn't, Claws-Mail doesn't. IIRC KMail and Wanderlust didn't when I used them. Probably no other does, I just mentioned those I'm still using or I used a while back.
