Hello,
I try to explain my problem. A sender sends one e-mail message to an inbox on my server. (Debian lenny, exim 4.69) (ex. [email protected] sends to [email protected]) It comes, but it not stop, comes to the inbox again and again, so repeats itself like a spam mail. But sender sends only one mail. The exim conf. is at last version. And i reinstalled the exim, but it didn't resolved. Please give me a solution.
 
check /var/log/exim/mainlog

I copy here a sample, is there anything wrong?

Code:

Interesting; each one has a separate serial number. Check to make sure you don't have a loop somewhere in your forwarding.

I am sure there are no mail forwarding, i've deleted them. it's still looping.
 
Did the sending user make sure it did not get stuck in his outbox. I have seen that happen before.

I've tried to send an e-mail from different mail accounts which is located on different servers. Only the mail which is sended from gmail was not looped, others looped.
