<question xml:id="mail-loopback">
<para>Why does <application>Sendmail</application> give me
an error reading <errorname>mail loops back to

</question>
<answer>
<para>This is answered in the <link
xlink:href="http://www.sendmail.org/faq/">Sendmail
<acronym>FAQ</acronym></link> as follows. This
<acronym>FAQ</acronym> is recommended reading
when <quote>tweaking</quote> the mail setup.</para>
<programlisting>I'm getting these error messages:
553 MX list for domain.net points back to relay.domain.net
554 &lt;user@domain.net&gt;... Local configuration error
How can I solve this problem?
You have asked mail to the domain (e.g., domain.net) to be
forwarded to a specific host (in this case, relay.domain.net)
by using an MX record, but the relay machine does not recognize
itself as domain.net. Add domain.net to /etc/mail/local-host-names
[known as /etc/sendmail.cw prior to version 8.10]
(if you are using FEATURE(use_cw_file)) or add <quote>Cw domain.net</quote>
to /etc/mail/sendmail.cf.</programlisting>
