You'd better start writing, since you have a very difficult job ahead of
you and I have less than zero interest in doing it.

That is so MTA dependent it's not funny. How do you plan to know when the
MTA has done this?

That is the only reasonable strategy. Unless of course you want to write a
full MTA in Perl, which you are welcome to do but which I think is an
incredible waste of time.

Majordomo doesn't ever call an MTA directly.
