I used to filter my mail through gmail with the following sieve rule.
if not header :contains "X-Forwarded-To" "bmihulka at
hulkster.net"{
redirect "bmihulka at gmail.com";
}
With the gmail account set to forward to bmihulka at hulkster.net
After upgrading to dovecot 1.2.9 and postfix 2.7.0 from whatever was with
debian etch. I get a forwarding loop error. I don't know if this is a
dovecot issue or postfix issue so I'm starting here. If anyone has any
ideas or a better place to ask about this please let me know.
Thanks

Just a shot in the dark, but perhaps something changed in your gmail filtering rules? -Jason On Tue, May 3, 2011 at 5:22 PM, Brian Mihulka <bmihulka at gmail.com> wrote:> I used to filter my mail through gmail with the following sieve rule. > > if not header :contains "X-Forwarded-To" "bmihulka at hulkster.net"{ > redirect "bmihulka at gmail.com"; > } > > With the gmail account set to forward to bmihulka at hulkster.net > > After upgrading to dovecot 1.2.9 and postfix 2.7.0 from whatever was with > debian etch.

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.

For some unknown reason, the "Resend a copy of the incoming e-mail" [1] gets activated every now and then, and this is the mail reason for my "Mail forwarding loop" issues.
