Well, procmail doesn't read .forward, sendmail does. So sendmail reads the .forward, bypassing the configured LDA. If that has a problem and bounces though, it'll be bounced to the postmaster (the user probably), which gets in the loop. > Rename your .forward file so that it doesn't get read/processed, and see > if it helps. I would agree that if procmail is already the LDA (look for ^Mlocal in sendmail.cf, and check for the procmail path) you should get rid of the .forward. -- Randomly Generated Tagline: "Who is General Failure and why is he reading my hard disk ?"
