Forwarding loop error when trying to send email

Michael Lazar

Published: 02 Mar 2002

I've been trying to send an email but I keep on receive this message: "Maximum forwarding loop count exceeded. Message probably in a forwarding loop. Examine Forwarding Address of intended recipient in Address Book." What is the possible problem?
You probably have an address that is forwarding to an address that is forwarding back to itself. That's a routing loop. Check its records to see where it is forwarding to, and if that address is forwarding back to the original.
