How to stop massive auto-replies?

Hi guys,

I'm using EX2003 STD and I have an e-mail address that sends an auto-response when someone e-mails it. Due to the fun worms going around at the moment, we'll receive e-mail with the From field spoofed, and our auto-reply tries to send a mail to an invalid address. The mail server on the other end generates an NDR and sends it to my e-mail address, and then a loop of about 800 messages back and forth ensues.

Is there a way to have Exchange only send auto-replies once per day per address or something?

Thanks,
~S~
