Understood, but why didn't xmail find the MX record? Sounds like it's not an intermittent problem and the dns server is right there near the xmail server I'm guessing.

At 09.11 27/04/04 -0500, you wrote: Just for clarity, how would this happen? I thought a mailloop would only effect that mailserver??? Confused... XMail defines a mail loop as a message with more than (by default 16) Received: headers. It counts these headers and does not try to detect if a message is really going back and forth. The (good) assumption is that, if there are too many Received: then something is wrong somewhere, whether a loop or not (and a loop will always generate too many Received: sooner or later ...). Now, suppose Ecartis adds, say, 9 Received: headers. If a message is re-injected, it gets another 9 Received: headers prepended to it, so that XMail sees too many Received: and declares a mail loop. The actual number of Received: headers may vary, so a re-injected msg may get through on a system and be declared a mail loop on another. Anyway, the 'loop' is the sheer number of Received: which in this case depends on re-injection rather than a 'loop' proper. But the above assumption is still good :-) Ciao, Francesco - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe xmail in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line help in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[xmail] Re: Mail loop detected on backup MX
an email that was sent to my backup MX generated a Mail loop detected error on the backup MX. ... so, have I just setup my backup MX wrong ? (I thought this is how it was supposted to be setup according to a recent post on this list) You should use an smtprelay instead of an smtp thanks. so that post on the 2/jan/03 by [EMAIL PROTECTED] was wrong.

DNS MX records: domain1.com - 10:alias.domain1.com, 20:alias.domain2.com domain1.com xmail settings: domain - domain1.com domain alias - alias.domain1.com domain2.com xmail settings: custdomain - domain1.com.tab: SMTPnewline, alias.domain1.com.tab: SMTPnewline (plus settings pertaining to domain2.com, but they should not be relevant, but for those who are interested, they are almost the same as for domain1.com). I tested this by telneting to domain1.com:25 and domain2.com:25 and sending a message by hand (which got through both times ok). so I thought my backup MX was all ok. but for a short amount of time on the weekend, domain1.com was offline, and an email was sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] now, here is what I think happened remote server does MX lookup for domain1.com - gets 10:alias.domain1.com, 20:alias.domain2.com attempts to connect to domain1.com:25 - fails attempts to connect to domain2.com:25 - succeeds domain2.com does check local domains and domain aliases - no match check custdomain - finds command SMTP for domain1.com MX lookup for domain1.com - gets 10:alias.domain1.com, 20:alias.domain2.com attempts to connect to domain1.com:25 - fails attempts to connect to domain2.com:25 - succeeds domain2.com does the same sequence of steps repeatedly until loop detected. (each time prepending a bit to the header) so, have I just setup my backup MX wrong ?
