I can't ping my own interfaces (there's alsto an external one) and even 
postfix can't find a route to hit itself on the external iface. I'm a 
bit lost on this, what have I done wrong? Also, I don't know if it's 
related but the machine (you've guessed it... mailserver & fw/gw) 
sometimes becomes unresponsive on one of the two rl's and the only 
solution is to reboot. Anyone has some hints for me?
