Please don't do this; it wastes everybody's time. Use real names or IP
addresses. Obviously this can be a problem when the names involved
aren't in the public DNS.

That's not what the above bounce message indicates; it's precisely the
other way 'round.
There's no way to tell for sure, because of the fake data you're
providing. You have two cases: the "central" machine which handles
domain.tld (I think this is the one you're referring to as "the qmail
system"), and other systems which handle machine.domain.tld. Post the
output of qmail-showctl (unedited!) for both of these cases, clearly
identifying which is which. Then we can help.
