Hmmm, yes. There are several similarities to the DNS issue.

In the meantime, I'm waiting for this situation to change:

# nslookup mta1-rme.xtra.co.nz
Server: localhost.int.nz.freebsd.org
Address: 127.0.0.1

*** localhost.int.nz.freebsd.org can't find mta1-rme.xtra.co.nz: Non-
existent host/domain
