Abstract

A system and method for detecting generic loops is described. In one example, an inbound email is inspected for a loop token. If a loop token is found, then an event identification and a sender identification is extracted. The extracted sender identification and event identification is applied to a loop token record, and the inbound email is conditionally discarded based on the application to the loop token record.
