Is one of those emails [from a couple other people] also on the same
server? The server might be forwarding the message back to itself,
triggering the rule again. Just a thought.

Maybe one of the other accounts is a domain that is MX'd to your server,
but your server isn't configured for that domain, so it sends it out [on
behalf of a customer IP address...the server itself] and happily
receives it on another port...Just a thought. We've seen that happen in
a cluster setup with a message bouncing around the front end servers
until it maxes out the hop count.

Hi Jeff.
None of the target addresses are on this server. As far as MX'd, no I
dont believe that to be true. Oddly enough, they ARE getting the
information correctly, Im not sure how :)
