Joel,
Normally, when an smtp server replied to a HELO/EHLO query of an another smtp with the same hostname, you get mail loop.


Also, provide some logs please, specially on the mail looping part.

regards,
Kenneth

Hi to All,

I keep getting warning/errors on my maillog stating "mail for mydomain.com loops back to myself" the mail server is behind a router doing nat:

internet <---> router/nat <--->mail server (private IP)

The wan interface of the router has an MX record defined on our internet provider and resolves properly. I also configured port forwarding on the router to forward requests on port 110 and 25 to my mail server.

Every email that I send to a domain other than my own domain bounces back with an error "<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: mail for mydomain.com loops back to myself"

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

joel
