Tárgy: [Exim] Stopping loops
Here's what's happening:

Local user X.YZ@??? has a Hotmail address X_YZ@???
Within MS Outlook on their PC the user sets up Out of Office Assistant to
forward all mail to X.YZ@??? (note they've got the address wrong).
Mail to X.YZ@??? gets redirected by Outlook to X.YZ@???.
Hotmail rejects the message because of a non-existant address and sends it
back to X.YZ@??? which gets redirected to hotmail ad infinitum

Question is: What can be done within Exim to either a) stop this happening
or b) queue messages for, say, hotmail.com and only process them every few
hours?
