External email forwarding to a domino account

Hi,

I have a domain name registered with an external company, and have set up a catchall rule to forward all email being sent to that domain to a particular notes user account on my server… but my server is bouncing the messages back.

example.

My mail forwarding rule is to send *@myexternaldomain.com to me@notesdomain.com

But if i send an email to test@myexternaldomain.com it arrives at the domino server, but then gets bounced back causing a loop.

But, if i change the mail forwarding rule to send it to me@hotmail.com the email arrives in my hotmail account.

So the problem is with domino config. What can i do to fix this? Remember the solution must work for a catchall rule, not a specific external address.

Regards

Martin

Martin,

Is there an error message appearing in your log that coincides with the bounce? When the mail is bounced back, do you get an error or is the mail being forwarded back?
