Since snores.net isn't local, it isn't going anywhere near your lookup
directors. It's going to the router. However:

Is this actually correct? The DNS entries are

snores.net.              MX 10 relay.mail.snores.net.
snores.net.              MX  0 primary.mail.snores.net.
relay.mail.snores.net.   A  194.201.48.10
primary.mail.snores.net. A  194.201.48.11


Those IP addresses belong to something completely different:

Name: alpha.whitburn.xcalibre.co.uk
Address: 194.201.48.10

Is that one of your hosts? (The other one is "bravo".) Is snores.net
supposed to point there? If so, you need to have it in local_domains. If
not, you need to get the DNS entries altered.
