OK, so how/what/where does this "single role" exist?  As I understand
it it *has* to exist somewhere before the mail reaches the individuals
each of whom actually receives the mail.  Thus you need to receive
this acknowledgement from somewhere that deals with the mail *before*
it ever gets delivered to the individuals' MUAs, so the requirement
cannot be fulfilled by mutt.
