Hi, I am running ubuntu 14.04., I am having a problem which generating in mail.log, I got notified about this by server admin. He told me that there are many Active SMTP connection about mail delivery temporary suspended and look back to my self error. and when I check my mail.log I see that it is doing redirect loop on my server and some of many delivery temporarily suspended errors. I can use webmail to send and receive email from other services such as gmail, hotmail etc. But it is showing this error and active connection for loop, which I am very unfamiliar with. Kindly please advice me what should I do now?. To fix this problem.

Thats ok as these are technical mails for the system user root and not emails for a mailbox. If you want to forward them to a different addressthen you can do that in /etc/aliases. No, they are not supposed to use the domain name. These emails are technical emails, they have to be sent to the hostname of your server and not to your email domain.
Thanks Till. This made all sense . But as I won't be able to connect to SSH All the time to view root user emails so I has forwarded them to a domain email. by adding forward email.. in /etc/aliases/ I also has to update aliases.db by using # newaliases Emails are perfectly getting received now. But a configuration within master.cf still causing my bounce or mail delivery failure email's not getting received instantly.
