Create a posting loop with gmail and Blogspot

Pablo set up a Blogspot blog using Google, and a gmail account, likewise. Then he set his gmail account to forward to his blog's post-via-email address and his blog to send update alerts to his gmail account. The resulting loop resulting in his post being run 400 times in one day before his gmail account started to bounce the notifications. Link (Thanks, Pablo!)
