Since you have djbdns type
  dnsmx example.com
where 'example.com' is the email domain (ie foo@xxxxxxxxxxx) that you're
sending to.  You should get something back.

Install dnscache so that it listens on 127.0.0.1 and point your
/etc/resolv.conf entry to that IP address.  Then tail the dnscache logs:
 tail -f /service/dnscache/log/main/current | tai64nlocal
(your paths might vary)

From there you can probably find out what's going on with your DNS
lookup.
