Won't happen on this list....I have a size limiter watching incoming 
mail before redistribution.
IMNSHO, every mailinglist should have this as a bare minimum
protection, since the results of such a mail loop can be downright
scary, if not completely devastating to other systems and 
mailingboxes anywhere on this planet.

Those who were subscribed to the Panorama Mailinglist many moons ago 
know what I am talking about....8-))

Btw, newsgroups are also watched by news-bots, cancelling both
binaries (in non-binary newsgroups) and excessive
crosspostings/multipostings....and my newsfeed uplink, SatinNet,
recently has implemented similar filters, and they even go as far as
deleting HTML postings....so be aware of your newsreader
settings....your message might not come far otherwise....:-))
