I'm haveing some difficulty getting my network to accept mail messages.
I'm using exim through a cicso router. I have forwarded port 25 to my
mail machine. I am able to send mail to anyone. And I can receive mail
from the local machines. When I try to send mail to my machine from
another, I get nothing. I attach a typical dialog with exim when I use
the -d9 switch to maximize debugging messages.

A simple question. Do I need to run a local DNS? Can it be caching only?
