And that's the crux of this type of problem.
The ONLY way to know a file is fully copied is for the SENDER to generate some kind of signal. Because only the SENDER knows if the file has been sent successfully. The receiver does not have and can not have that information.
Period.
If it's important that the file be fully copied, you can't get around that limitation.

check-hostname
check-hostname(1M) System Administration Commands check-hostname(1M)
NAME
check-hostname - check if sendmail can determine the system's fully-qualified host name
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/check-hostname
DESCRIPTION
The check-hostname script is a migration aid for sendmail(1M). This script tries to determine the local host's fully-qualified host name
(FQHN) in a manner similar to sendmail(1M). If check-hostname is able to determine the FQHN of the local host, it reports success. Other-
wise, check-hostname reports how to reconfigure the system so that the FQHN can be properly determined.
FILES
/etc/hosts Host name database
/etc/nsswitch.conf Name service switch configuration file
/etc/resolv.conf Configuration file for name server routines
