Jim: I'm very pleased to say that was the problem. I found this link in procmail-foo+bar-addresses.php: <a href="/postfix.php/">. It's my website, so I fixed the HTML and tried again. I've repaired that URL and ran rundig again. But I rundig still encoutered the loop. I then removed the partially completed rundig database and ran it again. No loops this time. This situation may also account for why /phorum/ is one of the most heavily used sections of the website. ;) Thank you. I appreciate the help in solving this problem. -- Dan Langille : http://www.langille.org/ BSDCan - The Technical BSD Conference - http://www.bsdcan.org/ ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.
