The short answer is that you need to update your DNS configuration to
add an MX record for pc-0004.  Most likely mail for the entire
.localarea domain is being directed to pc-0001, so if you want pc-0004
to handle it's own mail, you need to add a specific MX record for it.

The long answer requires that you post your zone configuration files. ;-P
