Hello:
I don't think this is necessary. First, this headers should be
handled by the application (and indeed can easily be done as you
pointed out). Second, there is a conventional "X-Loop" header used and
supported by many MTAs.
http://www.ninebynine.org/IETF/Messaging/draft-klyne-hdrreg-mail
-00.html#hdr.X-Loop
Most delivery agents do this automatically. It is extremely unlikely
that two modern SMTP servers enter in a delivery loop, because this
used to be such a big problem before. In any case, this should be
handled at the server level, and SmtpProt is intended to be an SMTP
client.
