First of all you have set the divertcheck flag on to redirect administrative
messages to the request address. This check in rc.submit is not perfect. If you
want to keep the divertcheck flag on you should send us some more
information. I. e. an example, to get an idea what has triggered the
redirect to rc.request. Your anonymized X-Diagnostic: lines are good for
your subscribers but not helpful for us ;)
