553 Too many Received key words in the mail

2001-04-19 Thread flint

Hi everybody

   I have installed a new mail machine. Now I find a problem,that when I send to 
a mailbox which has been set Forward,the mailbox that is forward to can't receive mail.
And as postmast,will receive a "Delivery Status Notification" mail,it said:

This message could not be delivered to the following recipients:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
202.104.32.232 failed after I sent the message.
Remote host said: 553 Too many Received key words in the mail, should less than 5

Reporting-MTA: dns; bouncemessage.net

Final-Recipient: rfc822; [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Action: Failed
Status: 5.0.0


[EMAIL PROTECTED] is the mailbox that was forwarded to.
What's the problem?

The problem seems pretty obvious - the recieving MTA doesn't like the
fact that five MTAs have touched it before it gets there. :) Is it just
me, or is five too low for many cases?? This seems like a weak method of
loop protection, and it seems to me that it will bounce legitimate mail
too often...
