Well, at least one or two were just waiting for approval from the list
admin...

You can customize the command that Mutt runs when sending email by
changing the value of the $sendmail variable.  Instead of calling
sendmail (or the MTA, Postfix in your case), this could be a
custom-created shell script that first calls sendmail (or equivalent)
and then runs whatever commands you want to happen.

If you're not comfortable with creating shell scripts, you may want
to wait a little while before taking that path.  Or you could try to
make this your first shell script (however that's out of scope for this
list...), if you don't mind potentially losing a few sent emails while
you're learning. :-)
