Mail Error: Too many hops...
To whom can help me,
I am having a problem sending mail internally to local users within the same redhat box. I have done extensive googling as well as some minor searching at this here linuxforums.org, without any solid luck or straight answer.
I am also aware the following error maybe a configuration setting somewhere, like a user mapping to themselves. I have found no such errors in /etc/mail/virtusertable, /etc/aliases and the like... I can post any configuration file if someone can help me set this to rest.
A simple mail from user1 to user2 returns a kick back with some of the errors below.

<user2@txxxxxxx.xx>
