That's because the two name servers for aaa.nl - ns.aaa.nl and
ns.nl.net - are not authoritative for this domain. [I've just tried
them.] You've either misconfigured the master name server for aaa.nl
or else there are errors in the aaa.nl zone file which prevent it from
being loaded. Consult your name server's logs.

Could be. I suppose it's possible these sites won't accept incoming
mail if their name servers are getting non-authoritative answers when
they make forward and reverse lookups for the host/domain that's
sending the mail.
