For about four days now, I've had these emails stuck in my mailqueue,
and I don't understand what the problem is. Sure it says it has a DNS
failure, but what does it mean?

ctladdr=<xxxx at amnesiac.xxxx> (80/80), delay=1+18:01:02,

relay=mail2.ukrhosting.com. [91.196.0.5], dsn=4.3.0, stat=Deferred:
451 DNS temporary failure (#4.3.0)


I've disabled the firewall, I have a known working named on localhost,
and resolv.conf is pointing to localhost. Any ideas?
