hi davide, there are some mx records that point to 127.0.0.1 (stupid, but i have noticed one today).
so if xmail trys to send an email to the server, it sends the mail to itsself and produces a mail loop. it's not an xmail bug, but xmail could check for those stupid mx records. here the one i noticed: [soenke@blah soenke]$ dig vivapuls.tv mx ; <<>> DiG 9.1.3 <<>> vivapuls.tv mx ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 23341 ;; flags: qr aa rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 5, ADDITIONAL: 6 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;vivapuls.tv.
