I am not quite sure what you are trying to achieve with this, however 
I've devised something that matches your description:

require "enotify";
require "variables";
require "envelope";

# Let's not reply to robots and mailing lists
if allof (not exists "list-id",
     anyof (not exists "auto-submitted",
         header "auto-submitted" "no")) {

     # Get the return path
     if envelope :matches "from" "*" {

         # URI-encode the recipient address when necessary
         set :encodeurl "from" "${1}";

	# Send notification back to sender
         notify :message "Message received!" "mailto:${from}";
     }
}

This is somewhat scary though.
