It looks like the primary server is configured wrong and / or the dns records are
configured wrong.. can you tell me the configuration of your primary server ?
narnias.dk. 43200 IN MX 50 mail.n-consult.dk.
narnias.dk. 43200 IN MX 10 mail.narnias.dk.
as it looks like, mail.n-consult.dk has the higher priority.. iam not really
sure about mx records, iam not a expert in dns questions..
probably you should change the value, that the primary has the higher number
and, of course try to check about that the primary really accepts mail for
narnias.dk
