You are doing exactly what I need to do, and then some. I guess I wasn't
clear. I have a separate mailbox for the list. It's just if I have anyone
else in the domain on the list I get the loops. so my list is
list(_at_)domain(_dot_)com

and if I have me(_at_)domain(_dot_)com in the list it was creating a loop.

Because me(_at_)domain(_dot_)com is handled by the SAME PROCMAILRC file? Then it isn't a separate system user:

The X-Loop should protect you from the list picking up it's own messages. Skip over the recipe if the X-Loop is set, and you should be cool.
