Hello,

I've recently converted from sendmail, and postfix seems to be having problem 
with a recursive alias we use.

So, in our aliases file, we have an address like this:

allstaff: user1, user2, user3 ... user79, user80, allstaff80
allstaff80: user81, user82, ... user159, user160, allstaff160
allstaff160: user160, user161, ... user219, user220, allstaff220
...
and so forth and so on ... at user1921 (contained in alias allstaff1920), 
postfix starts responding with:

warning: alias database loop for user1921

and continues in that vein for the remaining 1000+ addresses.

I've tried adjusting virtual_alias_expansion_limit and 
virtual_alias_recursion_limit -- but even upping them to 10000 doesn't seem to 
remedy the situation.

Any thoughts on what I should be setting to address this issue?

Thanks,

                  -p
