With majordomo I think it's possible to do this, but you have to know how to
modify the wrapper to be able to detect mail loops by searching the body of the
text, From: header, etc.
This can be easily with procmail. A lot of opeople are using Smartlist because
of this. It would be nice if there are a lot of alternatives.
