The problem I see is that when my mail server gets the mail from Spam Soap there http://serverfault.com/questions/651974/postfix-too-many-hops-bounce-back is something in the header that it thinks made too many hops. This mail server receives fine, but as soon as it comes from Spam Soap it never gets delivered and it seems to try and deliver over and over and over till it just stops and then http://postfix.1071664.n5.nabble.com/Postfix-5-4-0-Error-too-many-hops-td51788.html I get a NDR. So here are some logs and NDR I have. I have included my config file for postfix as well. This is my mail log in real-time as a test message comes in, you will see it just repeats everything over and over: Oct 22 20:30:01 abda dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts): rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured Oct 22 20:30:01 abda dovecot: pop3-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts): rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured Oct 22 20:30:01 abda postfix/smtpd[10964]: connect from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] Oct 22 20:30:01 abda postfix/smtpd[10964]: lost connection after CONNECT from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] Oct 22 20:30:01 abda postfix/smtpd[10964]: disconnect from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] Oct 22 20:30:20 abda postfix/smtpd[10964]: connect from mxl144v245.mxlogic.net[208.65.144.245] Oct 22 20:30:20 abda postfix/smtpd[10964]: CB677C0B64: client=mxl144v245.mxlogic.net[208.65.144.245] Oct 22 20:30:20 abda postfix/cleanup[10991]: CB677C0B64: message-id=

Hi, I believe this is not an issues with my ISPConfig/postfix setup however I'd like to confirm. Most email sends normally however one person using my server talks with several people in the Netherlands (We are in Canada).
