Hello all,
I'm running fwtk with smap on my linux machine. Last Friday (June 3) at
around 17:25, my machine started having problems with messages
from this mailing list. The subject line of these messages all complains
about 'too many hops'. It got so bad that by 17:30 Saturday, the logs
and message queues started filling up my hard disks.
Can anyone help me with the following two questions:
1. What is causing the 'too many hops' error? Is it something on my machine?
I put my machine back to work by cleaning up the queues and rebooted it.
2. How do I prevent my hard disk filling up next time? Is it something
that I need to configure within smap, sendmail?
Please see the attached returned mail for more detail.
Thanks for any insight.
