Brian, I have endured problems like that before. Without more specific
information, all answers would be at most guesswork. To debug the
problem, post the output of "postconf -n" and the log entries
pertaining to the message that was creating the forwarding loop.

Exacting how is the mail being delivered to your mail server anyway?
