Mail loop

[Bob Nielsen <nielsen@primenet.com>]

I tried sending mail to myself by smtp from another system.  It was
received, but keeps trying to send to itself, until finally being rejected
for excessive loops:

ad infinitum (the last in the <long> string showed the mail being received
from the remote system).  

Does anyone know what I am missing here?
