This sounds like a very good solution... unfortunately, writing scripts isn´t my strength...does anyone have a script already written that does this and is willing to share it with everyone? (eg. publish it in the list?)

Quoting David Kelly dkelly@ono.com:
Hello everyone, a rather unexpected thing happened the other day, someone subscribed to a list of ours with an address that uses an autoresponder,
If the autoresponder strips all header lines there aren't any easy
solutions.
You could write a script which records submissions to the list with a timestamp. If there are too much postings from one sender within a certain time range assume it's a loop and unsubscribe the address. E. g. if there are 10 submissions from the same address with the same (or similar)
subject
arriving within 50 minutes it's most probably a loop.
