I'm running pdnsd on my local interface, so my resolv.conf reads:

search optex.local
domain optex.local
nameserver 192.168.0.13

I just tried restarting pdnsd and the message has now been delivered
successfully to one of the other hosts. I really should have run
tcpdump and see what was being returned before restarting it.

So it seems to have been a problem with my DNS server.
