Hi,
I subscribe to the Debian user maillist which generates dozens of mails per
day. Sometimes Alligate refuses a mail from the list with a 5.x.x. error.
Part of the bounce message (which was later forwarded to me):
-----<quote>----------

In the log it says:

I am assuming the “too many hops: (12)” means there are 12 Received lines. So I
want to increase that a little bit but I cannot find that option?
Where is it?
