Exchange 2013 Message Header

[dduuhh]

Hi All

We have just had added an Exchange 2013 server to our 2010 Exchange environment.
Exchange 2010 consists of 2 servers set-up using DAGS.
The Exchange 2013 server is standalone (not part of DAG set-up)

While looking at an email header for a different reason I found what seems to me to be unusual delivery occurrence where the New 2013 server receives the email but appears to me to send it to itself, any thoughts as to what is going on here.

1 * mail.FromExternal.com 111.111.111.111 smtp.ourserver.com OurServer.com xx/x/xxxx 10:42:33 PM

Could be sending to its shadowqueue, where it holds a copy of things until it confirms delivery of them.
