QUOTE | XMail automatically detects and stops looping messages. They get frozen in the message queue so they can be examined for the reason of looping.
Loops can be caused by - A too low "MaxMTAOps" value in your server.tab. Details see manual. - entries in aliases.tab or MailRoot/cmdaliases pointing to each other, - entries in mailusers.tab with the same account ID, - filters that redirect mails in a loop, - DNS misconfiguration, - a not commented-out "DefaultSMTPGateways" entry in your server.tab, which points to some nonsense targets.
For LINUX (and its flavours), only: If you get looping messages on a fresh or changed installation, then this can be the cause: - You have assigned the same hostname to multiple interfaces. Check your /etc/hosts. - The permissions for /var/MailRoot/* is not 700. Make sure you did a 'chmod -R 700 /var/MailRoot' after installation. - The owner of /var/MailRoot needs to be root:root, nothing else. Check this with 'ls -la'. To transfer ownership to root do a 'chown -R root:root /var/MailRoot'.
