Well if you try mailing to it you will see. It is returned by the smtp
server I use to send email which incidentally is also qmail. Here is the
bounce message:
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at gidora.zeta.org.au.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following
addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
<wilson@[203.26.11.154]>:

Remote host said: 553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed

Giving up.
