We also have trouble with RT-installations. We have had to set the
sympa loop-detection count very low because of this. RT doesn't use
any of the usual indicators (List-headers etc.) to show that it is a
robot, and doesn't recognize any of the ususal indicators either.

This is a potential DOS, if somebody maliciously uses a sympa-address
in an rt-ticket, or subscribes rt to a sympa-list.
