My gateway (public 217.215.74.165) portmaps the POP3 and SMTP ports to my
XMail server (private 192.168.0.42). When I'm connected to the same LAN as
the mailserver, I can't reach it by using its domain name
"mail.hummelstrand.com" since that is "next hop" (at least that is what my
colleague said was the reason for me not being able to surf or reach any
service on the server by using the domainname pointing to the public IP
217.215.74.165).

I can POP locally from XMail if I set up the mailclient on my laptop with
the private IP for both POP3 and SMTP servers, but then I will have to
change the settings every time I want to check my mail while I'm "on the
outside", i.e. when I bring my laptop to work every day.

The readme.txt mentions a number of examples of "home.bogus" domain, but I
can't quite igure out if this applies to my problem.

Thanks in advance, this was my third and hopefully final question...
