What is the purpose of your DNS server ? Is it an authoritative
DNS server ? The "internal" and "external" are most likely various
"views". In bind, you can selectively expose only a few hosts to the
public and expose everything internally within your organisation. But
we don;t really need such complicated stuff always. We can have a
simple configuration. Here, I am pasting a sample named.conf config
file(from my Debian box)
zone "." {
type hint;
file "/etc/bind/db.root";
};
zone "localhost" {
type master;
file "/etc/bind/db.local";
};
zone "127.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "/etc/bind/db.127";
};
zone "bala.domain" {
type master;
file "/etc/bind/bala.domain.zone";
};
all those zone files have various entries in bind9 format. They will
have entries for MX, TXT(needed with SPF, DKIM etc.) and other
necessary records for the domain.

Depends on what all you need in the DNS. For mail delivery,
you need to add an MX record in your zone file. And if you want to
enable stuff like SPF, add the necessary TXT records. Thanks
