Can a message be rejected silently, without advising the sender of the fact?

I wouldn't normally want to do this, but I'm trying to harden a Sympa installation against loops, having once had an MLM enter into a "I can send more than you can" argument with a badly configured out-of-office auto reply.

My first attempt involved adding this to the scenari:

match ([header->precedence], /list|bulk/) smtp,smime,md5 -> reject

since some auto responders set the precedence header. This resulted in a short rejection note being returned - can I suppress this?
