The server exim is running on is set up that it will do it's lookups
from another local machine. That one runs bind 9, and is configured to
look it up if it doesn't know the answer. If that fails, it'll try one
of two DNS servers from my ISP.
It looks reliabel to me and in fact, I have never had any problems only
until recently. On the local network, there's not that mucg traffic and
definatelly not so much that it'll cause timeouts.

Again, the nameserver to ask is one on the local network and which
doesn't have a lot more to do than being nameserver and firewall.
