I posted this problem to the list on 9-29-02, and did get a suggestion that
perhaps a double-call to procmail would be causing the problem I'm having.
The reasons why I don't believe that this is the case:
1. no mention of procmail in the sendmail.cf
2. the problem is not constant, seems to occur rather randomly. Wouldn't
this problem be continual if I had the double-procmail setup?
The setup: .forward points into .procmailrc, which calls spamc -f.
Running spamd 2.50-cvs at this point
sendmail 8.12.5
Freebsd 4.6-Release
Below is a full copy of one of the messages that bounced. Unchecked, these
appear to loop continually (getting rebounced and accruing bounce headers)
until I shut down sendmail/spamd, and clean the cruft from the mail queues
on the other servers. If I don't do the cleanout job, when I flush the
queues it seems like spamc on the target server (the only one currently
running spamc/d) fails again, beginning the process anew.
Any other suggestions as to what might be causing this problem?
Thanks
