NAME

loop - Detect mail loops

DESCRIPTION

This plugin detects loops by counting "Received" and "Delivered-To" header lines. It's a kluge but it duplicates what qmail-smtpd does, and it does at least prevent messages from looping forever.

CONFIGURATION

Takes one optional parameter, the maximum number of "hops" ("Received" and lines plus "Delivered-To" lines) allowed. The default is 100, the same as in qmail-smtpd.
