I think it will not cost anything.  Ok -- trivial solution, again, around the same
$SENDER lines:

case "$SENDER" in
 ""|MAILER-DAEMON@*) ;;
 list[1-4]@example.com) ;;
 other-list@example.com) ;;
 ...
 *)
   if sed '/^$/q' "$MAIL" | egrep -qi '^(x-loop|x-listname|x-listmember|mailinglist|precedence:
(bulk|list|junk)) ; then
     :
   else
    # send actual sender report
   fi
esac

This is just to show an "idea" -- actual regexp should be adjusted.

Well, this is a good feature IMHO.  If you can construct appropriate
expression, then just do it please, or else I'll do that myself when
time permits...  ;)
