Can somebody point me in the direction of where my problem might lie?

I have a few domains that are working perfectly. I can access their home
pages on their web servers, and send e-mail to those domains.

And I have a few that generate a message "mail loops back to myself"
when I try to send e-mail to myself at that domain.

All the domains appear to be set up the same way, both in /etc/ns
database files and in /etc/sendmail.cf.

Does anybody know what I might look at to fix this?

Thanks!
