I have a machine qm1.asimba.com which acts as a secondary MX. The only
purpose for it is to move mail to the primary mail server after the
primary server is up. I have the primary mail server entry in rcpthosts
file. But it didn't quite work. We shut down the primary mail server.
Qm1.asimba.com receives the messages destined to the primary mail
server, marks them as remote. Somehow qmail keeps trying every few
seconds til it accumulates so many hops, it started to bounce. Do you
have any clues?
Here's some sample message
============================================================
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at qm1.asimba.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following
addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
209.0.108.110 failed after I sent the message.
Remote host said: 554 too many hops, this message is looping (#5.4.6)
--- Below this line is a copy of the message.
