It looks like DNS is down for the box.
Outside world can resolve it, but it can't resolve the rest of the
world.

Or so I thought. Something is not happy. And I don't know
what. My log files are now filling up with messages of
failed email. Each of the files /var/log/mail.err /var/log/mail.info
/var/log/mail.log /var/log/mail.warn /var/log/syslog are getting
the same messages

I'm not finding these messages very helpful in knowing
what the problem is. In order to stop the log files from filling
up / I've stopped nullmailer. But I would prefer to know
what it was complaining about.
