    The problem is with the listservers themselves (well, at least two
of them, so far).  If I send a request to the server, it answers back
one way or the other.  However, my recipe treats the response as
ordinary mail and sends a receipt, which the listserver treats as
another incoming request, to which it answers with an invalid-request
message, to which my recipe responds, ... .  You get the idea.  We have
a "ringing mail" situation.  Just yesterday I added the listserv@ and
listproc@ conditions, but I still seem to be having the problem.

Check the from address on the mail. I guess it will be from 
`listserv-owner' or `listserv-request' (and the same for listproc). The 
`@' at the end of your condition prevents matching on these.
I find this very strange, as ^FROM_DEAMON should catch them.
