Recent versions of TMDA have a configuration variable called
MAX_AUTORESPONSES_PER_DAY.  The default value is 50.  That means that
TMDA will not send more than 50 responses to the same address in one
day.  So the loop will stop automatically.  You can change that to a
lower number (or higher), if you want, in your config file.

If you want to add the X-Primary-Address to mail that you send from
your MUA, you want to use ADDED_HEADERS_CLIENT.  If you want to add
X-Primary-Address to messages that TMDA sends, such as confirmation
requests, bounces, etc., you should use ADDED_HEADERS_SERVER.

In either case, that header will be added to mail that is leaving your
system.  It is extremely unlikely that any autoresponder will copy
that header from your mail into the response it sends to you.  So
there would be no way to filter based on X-Primary-Address, or on any
particular header that you create in outgoing mail.
