    ml>> how do you prevent binkd from connecting to one of its own AKAs?

   HA! that's funny but it would work i guess LUL   
      
   it was actually calling one of my administrative AKAs for HOST routing... i'm   
   still looking at options...   
      
   FWIW: i did, at one time, have to put in a routing statement for my system to   
   route to itself because it was sending the netmail to one of my upstream links   
   which was sending it right back... that was a similar loop problem... i'll get   
   it figured out somehow... i just don't really recall other mailers being able   
   to connect to themselves over POTS or, as in this case, TCP/IP... it just   
   seems proper that the mailer would recognize the destination as one of its own   
   addresses and simply refuse to make the attempt at all... maybe with a   
   configurable option? i dunno...
