error login

[bind at metta.lk]

Hi all,

I have a small Lan and have installed the latest version of bind.
My system is RH6.0 linux, with qmail.

I am getting mail to my server using a ppp dialup connection
and provide email accounts to a few users with dial-in connection.
These users cannot get their mail down.

Am I right, when I expect my sytem should be listning both to
narada.col7.metta.lk,  172.16.1.1  ?
as well as 127.0.0.1, localhost  ?

Below are a few of my config files.
Any help would be much appriciated

with thanks
Jacob
