  The attachments referred to loops caused by "-b". As i wrote,
 I am using the system as a pure email relay server, which
 forwards all incoming emails to another email server. So
 the transport of the emails is always working, also
 with "-r 15 -b <outside-email". But the CPU load goes
 heavily up. System load goes up to about 4-6. But the
 system is still doing its job without any loops. 

  However, when I just use "-r 15", CPU load goes down
 to 1-10%, system load is at 0.1 to 1.0.
