For starters... part of your problem is that aarrestag.com is not a valid
hostname.

So for at least other mail servers [recipient]@aarrestad.com would be
invalid.

You say the box name is kjeller.aarrestad.com resolves to 81.29.33.68.

That IP address resolves to: www.aarrestad.com

However, your mail server is answering with aarrestad.com and apparently
attempting to send mail as user@??? but that hostname does not
resolve to anything.

kjeller.aarrestad.com.  3600    IN      A       81.29.33.68
68.33.29.81.in-addr.arpa. 259200 IN     PTR     www.aarrestad.com.
www.aarrestad.com.      3600    IN      A       81.29.33.68


Can't find aarrestad.com: No answer
