There is a simple trick you can do to avoid unwanted mails being sent using
your computer:
Simply create a new entry on your address book as !0000, with no e-mail or
any other information.

Whenever a program try to send messages using your address book, it will be
blocked by your computer since it can't be sent to the first address (which
is null...).
