It's not going to be as easy as you had hoped. At least, not unless
you can find a way to put the "Approved:" line into the header of the
message.
The problems lie in the vagaries of how HTML is interpreted by each
cog in the system, and how unintentional changes at any one point
could have potentially catastrophic results downstream, at least for
certain clients.

I'm not sure about what capabilities you will find with which
programs, certainly not from a scripting perspective. Personally, if
I need a CLI/scriptable client, I'll go with something like
/usr/bin/Mail or mutt, both of which are typical Unix text-mode MUAs.
But then I was using /usr/bin/Mail twenty years ago, and I don't
think that it's going to be the kind of program you're looking for.
Neither of these programs do HTML, for one thing.
