That's what mutt does. The option is off by default, but can be
enabled by editing .muttrc. From `man muttrc`:

       dsn_notify
              Type: string
              Default: ""

              Note:  you  should  not  enable this unless you are
              using Sendmail 8.8.x or greater.

              This variable sets the request for  when  notifica­
              tion  is  returned.  The string consists of a comma
              separated list (no spaces!) of one or more  of  the
              following:  never,  to  never request notification,
              failure, to request  notification  on  transmission
              failure,  delay,  to be notified of message delays,
              success, to be notified of successful transmission.

              Example: set dsn_notify="failure,delay"

       dsn_return
              Type: string
              Default: ""

              Note:  you  should  not  enable this unless you are
              using Sendmail 8.8.x or greater.

              This variable controls how much of your message  is
              returned  in DSN messages.  It may be set to either
              hdrs to return just the message header, or full  to
              return the full message.

              Example: set dsn_return=hdrs
