I noticed that my dnscache is pointing to an external dns server, not
the internal one. This is also bad because the server can't see itself
with it's internal address. How do I configure which dns servers it
uses as sources?

I'm not sure if that's the case, but I'll check with the network guy.
Come to think of it, the server name is mail.netprivateer.com and the
domain is netprivateer.com... would it be aliased to accomodate that?
Should we have the server set up to be just netprivateer.com and put
that in the me file?

I double-checked. The only line is:

dnscache has already cached a lot of stuff, it's like qmail just
refuses to work with dns. It tries to deliver a message for almost
30 seconds and then gives the error.
Do you still think it's the firewall?
Maybe? does your qmail server have A and PTR records?
Cname is alias and it should not be used with mail-server.
