The other solution, which is what I usually have done is to setup an authoritative DNS server for your
domain that only serves out DNS for your LAN. Then point
acc3ss.homelinux.org to whatever your internal IP Addresses are and setup
MX records for it too if you want. That way anyone outside of your
network resolves to your firewalls external address but anyone on your
internal network would resolve to your firewall/mailservers internal
address. Hope this helps.

This is the method I would use. It tends to work the best and you aren't involving your nat box when you don't need to which will give you better performance. Though I am not sure the performance hit caused by passing the internal traffic through the firewall will be noticeable. I expect it won't be.
