Hi Sumith,
I was able to solve it from the replies i got from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
list..the problem went away when i hardcoded the log mail address ..
QUEUE_EXTRA="[EMAIL PROTECTED]\0"
QUEUE_EXTRALEN=13
and for my previous set up the .qmail-log file should be like
/home/xyz/Maildir/
since i was forwarding the copy of mail to another address it was queuing up
again and thus looping...
regards
