Yup: You are forwarding postmaster mail. This is a guarantee for trouble
with any mail server.

The messages do not loop. Each bounce generates a new message.

Do not forward postmaster mail, or if you do then make sure that
the forwarding works.
Having said that: i prefer the second way, for ease of use.
Set $DATABYTES to somewhat change the behaviour: qmail-smtpd will
not accept the message, the sending server will generate a double-bounce
and then discard that ...
