There is no way to change this at present. Other than hacking the code,
of course.
Note that that particular error message arises only for messages sent
from local processes using the command line interface. If local
processes send messages using SMTP (which several MUAs do), then the
rejection happens during the SMTP dialogue, and an entirely different
message may be shown to the originator.
