My point was that that setting is the _cause_ of your problem. It is
explicitly refusing to resolve your IP address because it is in the
private range. That is the correct behaviour for a default install,
where you don't want some random DNS lookup to point to a private IP.
But you know you have valid mail servers in your own private IP range,
so you must change that config setting.
