Probably.

Oh, you want to know how?

    :0chi
    * ! ^X-Loop: harry\(_dot_)mj(_at_)get2net\(_dot_)dk
    * ^From:[   ]*\/[^  ].*
    | ( echo "To: otheraddress(_at_)elsewhere(_dot_)net" ; \
        echo "X-Loop: harry(_dot_)mj(_at_)get2net(_dot_)dk" ; \
        echo "Subject: You have mail from $MATCH" ) \
      | $SENDMAIL $SENDMAILFLAGS -t

Perhaps you should check that you don't report back on mail from
otheraddress(_at_)elsewhere(_dot_)net in addition to the X-Loop checking.
Excluding ^FROM_DAEMON mail might also be a good idea.
