They are happening in either of two scenarios here. Prerequiste however is, there is a message-sender with an MX-entry 127.x.x.x for his sender-domain. When a message is accepted by SMTPRCV, but can't be delivered this loop happens. Even when only known recipients are accepted, this can occur: When a sender, not allowed to do so, sends mail to an IMS-list or it's -request management- address. The other possibility is a locally allowed forwading, which is not accepted by any recipient further along. For these cases it would be a nice addition to SMTPRCV, to have the "too many received headers"-detection, which SMTPR had. HTH K W This is the discussion list for the IMS Free email server software.
