Both domains hosted on Plesk, but only one used the server for MX, the other used 1and1 MX records. Turning off the mail for this domain in Plesk solved the issue. - the mail shoul dhave been turned off anyway for the server to do external look ups! Hi,

It looks like: $ cat .qmail-username username@domain.com secondusernameadress@domain.com I use maildrop to filtering my messages, so I this record was bad, it should look like: $ cat .qmail-username | maildrop /home/vpopmail/domains/domain.com/mailfilter secondusernameadress@domain.com I have the same problem, that I have the .qmail-username alias with the same adres inside. It looks like:
$ cat .qmail-username
username@domain.com
secondusernameadress@domain.com

I use maildrop to filtering my messages, so I this record was bad, it should look like:
$ cat .qmail-username
| maildrop /home/vpopmail/domains/domain.com/mailfilter

The bounced message bounced back, and this kept going back and forth. Kept us for a while to find this problem. The problem was that one alias forwarded to a mailbox and to another alias which forwarded to another mailbox and an external address. (like info -> box1, name; and name -> box2, external@domain.com) I noticed in another setup that exim did handle that situation without any troubles.
