Hello Jerry,

no this question not belongs on the Postfix forum.
It was a dovecot issue. I've fixed it.

I just created an empty file '.dovecot.sieve' in the 'antispam at xxx.com'
Mailbox dir. This prevents dovecot to execute the globalsieve for the
Mailbox 'antispam at xxx.com'.

My script triggered a loop.

New script:
require ["fileinto"]; 
# Move spam to junk folder 
if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" ["YES"] { 
   redirect "antispam at xxx.com";
   stop;
}
