Yes, there is static mapping between the private and public addresses. The OHN is mail.eservicesforyou.net which resolves in the internal DNS to the private IP, but the public records all point to mail.eservicesforyou.com which has the public IP addresses.
The problem, if it is one, as I see it is that in the registry the OHN name is mail.eservicesforyou.net and the corresponding IP in the registry is a private one. According to Imail KB it uses the information in the registry irregardless of DNS resolution. I had tried changing in the registry to the public IP address which I then had to add the public IP to the NIC and according to the Imail KB it had to be listed first but then Imail was trying to send as if from the public IP which the firewall said no way that IP is not in that zone.
