Hi.
It has been reported some times by people posting on that list receive a
bounce about a "mail forwarding loop" preventing their message from being
accepted on the list.
They can safely disregard this message, their mail correctly reached the
mailing list.
Complete explanation:
It is caused by one of list subscribers which, when receiving a copy of that
message (as sent by the mailing list server) bounces it to its "reply-to"
address - which is the main ML address - instead of the "error-to" address -
whjich is the proper bounce address. Hence, the mail reaches the list again,
with preserved mail headers. This causes our mailserver to detect a possible
mail forwarding loop, and it rejects the mail to its sender - which is the
original submitter.
