The hosts line in nsswitch.conf reads:

hosts:  files nisplus nis dns

I don't use NIS.

Ok. I had 'search axon.is' and 'nameserver 194.144.127.194'. Tried to also 
remove search but it didn't change anything. Now I only have 'nameserver 
127.0.0.1'.

Yes. qmail-qstat says it has 0 preprocessed messages in the queue but 2 
waiting to be sent. I was just wondering if qmail did some header building 
or something based on information it had at the time. Say that I now change 
my setup in some way but that change isn't reflected in the old messages in 
the queue as the have already been preprocessed, so next time qmail tries to 
deliver them, they fail.
