That doesn't look like a line from an alias file.

To prevent looping, you'll want to use the hostname of your primary MX,
rather than the domain name in the alias destination.  Naturally, the
primary MX will need to consider its hostname a "local" domain.  If your
primary mx is "mx1.domain1", then the alias should look like:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

There should be no MX records in DNS for "mx1.domain1".
