Phishing is an extremely effective attack vector. My company's security group
regularly and randomly sends out phishing emails. Those falling for it are
sent to training for how to identify a phishing attack. I've heard anecdotally
that some people have had to go to the training three times! Which I don't say
to gloat - but merely to point out how well that attack vector works.

I know of no email client that tries to detect and warn about phishing or
other forms of attacks.

Message contains executables masquerading as data files?

From: domain name is different from the received from:?

Homoglyphs in the domain name?

Tracking pixels?

White on white text?

Suspicious Javascript?

etc.
