I have followed the advice given by Chris and made sure that all the settings were correct in the GUI. I then removed the user and created a new user. I still get the following error:

[127.0.0.1] #<[127.0.0.1] #5.0.0 SMTP; 554 5.0.0 rewrite: excessive recursion (max 50), ruleset canonify> #SMTP#

If I remove the www. from the virtusertable it will fix this problem. What can I do to stop this happening in the first place?

Hi

I have a BlueOnyx server and every time I create a new user to a virtual site through the GUI it adds an entry similar to the following in the virtusertable:

user at www.domainname.com<mailto:user at www.domainname.com>

Nothing wrong there.

I then have to edit the virtusertable to remove the www. , save the file and restart sendmail.

Whoops.  That's a mistake.

Is there a reason why this is happening?

Yes.  It's doing exactly what it should be doing.  Why are you going in
and manually changing it?

If you've configured the site properly, you have the domain in the email
server aliases box and therefore a line in the virtusertable like:
@domain.com       %1 at www.domain.com

In other words, leave virtusertable alone.  It was working precisely as
intended.
