I have tons of rejected mail due to timeouts when the receiving end looks to
be trying to resolve the internal IP in the received from header. Some
actually
bounce with "Config error - mail loops back to me..." because they are
trying
to resolve 192.168.1.1

I have "DNS and BIND" in front of me, and admit I should go back to page
one and start over. However, I do have (obviously wrong) MX records in
place.
Could you tell me what is wrong with this entry? Don't be gentle - I know I
don't
know what I am doing!
