I keep getting emails sent to my email address which are addressed to another person on my server. Some of it is spam and other messages, but it keeps sending and resending and resending (Every minute or so 50+ messages come in!!!!!). Please let me know what information you need with my configuration and I will provide it promptly.

Thank you for all your help!!!

Two things to try:

- Make sure you account hasn't been setup as postmaster (Configuration/Core module/General/Username of postmaster). If it has, create a new user to use only as the postmaster account.

- Disable all global rules. If this stops the loops test by enabling them one by one until you find the rule that is causing a loop.

If neither of this works, please post your mercury.ini and daemon.ini files and we'll see if there is a clue there.

Rolf,

Excuse me for not replying sooner. I had a quick question though.. When you say disable global rules, Where can I find that? I checked core process and couldn't find it...

Thanks.

You will find them in Configuration / Filtering rules / Edit global rules.

The log shows all messages that came in during those 3,5 minutes being rejected by MercuryS after failing DNSBL check. If there are some log entries that correspond to the messages that have been delivered to your account that would perhaps be more informative. Headers from one of those messages might help too.

daemon.ini indicate that you have installed Graywall, but I don't see any trace of Graywall activity in the log. Is it switched off? If delaying of some messages is acceptable to you it's a very effective anti-spam tool.

If you run SpamHalter as daemon.ini indicate you will need a global rule to move away messages that have been tagged to a junk mailbox.

In mercury.ini you should remove this line in the domains section: [70.167.192.154]: borderstatestech.com. It probably won't do any harm, but it serves no purpose either.
