While not all bad things that can happen as a consequence of taking a fake email to be real involve clicking links, I agree it would be very helpful if we could somehow determine the legitimacy of links at the MTA/MUA level. However, we can't. There are simply too many examples of bad links that match the sender's address (paypai being just one of them) and even more examples of 'good' links that don't match, that in general you can't tell from just analysing the URL.
