I was expecting that to happen as well, but in sympa.pl it drops a  
message if its sender contains "mailer-daemon" (among other similar  
addresses), so the message doesn't make it to the list.  Check  
sympa.pl, lines 915-918 (v5.1).  This is what's generating the  
"Ignoring message which would cause a loop, sent by..." log entry  
from the sympa process.

Thanks,
Jeff
