Use a logfile monitor. Postfix logs all submission errors.
Unlike the SMTP agents, the Postfix sendmail command must be able
to run even when Postfix is stopped. It cannot depend on the
existence of running postfix daemons.
There are many errors that Postfix sendmail cannot notify by sending
email (such as disk full, bad file permission, etc.) so it does not
attempt to notify for only a subset.

No-one has asked for that, therefore it is not implemented. Software
may be free to use, but that doesn't mean it costs nothing to provide.
