With a view to getting information on our proposed Whisky Trail hopscotch - looks like the 1st 3 weeks in June are penciled in - I sent an email to the following address
This message passed through a number of mail servers
greater than the maximum number specified in the
Maximum MTA Hops field. This probably indicates that
there are accounts on separate machines that forward
mail to each other.
There may also be a problem with the host address or
Domain Name System records.
Maximum Hops: 15
Anyway, this is the 1st attempt but I have never heard of "hops" and the fact that their is alimit.
However, I shall plod on, and will undoutably get the info I require
regards
Geoff

Sounds a bit weird to me, though the URL sounds genuine enough. I'm no expert but have a friend who's a network manager so if nobody else can help I'll ask him tomorrow. I expect he will know what it means.
It's easy. Hops are all part of the beer brewing process, so you're obviously meant to do a beerfest and not a whiskey trail. Take it as a sign, change your plans now, and visit the hops field.

Address works for me
Hops, and I'm not technical are a sort of redirection to an address or website, some programmes wil not allow more than a certain number of hops or re directions for fear of the site or address being dangerous. Apple particularly does this.
Best definition I could find
An intermediate connection in a string of connections linking two network devices. On the Internet, for example, most data packets need to go through several routers before they reach their final destination. Each time the packet is forwarded to the next router, a hop occurs. The more hops, the longer it takes for data to go from source to destination. You can see how many hops it takes to get to another Internet host by using the PING or traceroute utilities.
Some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) advertise how many hops away from Internet backbone they are. Theoretically, the fewer hops it takes to get your data onto the backbone, the faster your access will be.
