Are you on a private network (ie 10.x.x.x) or on a public network? If you are on a private network, you are probably going to have to create a dns (and reverse) entry on your external dns server for this system. This can be a mail routing sever that excepts mail for any system on the private network.
If you are on a public network make sure that the dns administrator has the appropriate reverse entry in the dns server for you server.
