Hello,
My company and our parent company are both behind a corporate firewall but
with separate domains and mail servers. As of last Thursday we cannot send
mail to one another. When I do send any of their users mail I get it
returned from our postmaster account as an unknown host. Does this mean
that DNS is unable to recognize their domain as external to ours? The log
shows:
08:07 07:34 SMTPD(10C700DC) [110.50.50.2] connect 110.50.50.50 port 1034

I can resolve their MX records and the IP addresses of their mail and name
servers through DNS. I can resolve their SOA record.
The only glaring part of their configuration is that their DNS server is not
part of the same domain as their mail server. Anything else I should look
for?
