Yes, I got that too when I sent mail to this list. It's quite disconcerting. I bet that's why people have been sending the same message over and over to this list -- they keep getting this error and it makes them think their message didn't go through. Without looking at the logs of the mailing list server I can only guess what's going on. (Indeed, even if I could look at the logs, I'd probably still have to make a wild guess.) It could be that the mailing list is misconfigured. It could even be that one of the subscribers to this list has misconfigured his or her mail client, and the client is sending copies of the posts back to the mailing list, and Postfix is intepreting that as a mail loop. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list [email protected] http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
