What happened to me was that an autoresponse "bounced".  The bounce
message still had the X-Loop, but it was not part of the header, since the
other guy adds a header and quotes the "bounced" message.  I can also
check the body for my X-Loop to fix that.  (Or does someone see a
potential problem with that?)

Did the bounce not match the FROM_DAEMON?

Ie you should have

* ! ^FROM_DAEMON

as one of the conditions for your recipe in deciding whether or not to reply.

Body scans are pretty heavy-duty, and you may not want the cost for every 
message.
