Is your local machine set up to receive SMTP requests on the external interface, and secondly is it setup to relay? The reason it cannot resolve your domain address is probably because your box is not responding to an SMTP request. You might want to try sending via the 127.0.0.1 address if your testing on the same box that the mail server is on.
Regarding Count Zero's mention of the HTTP submission method, that has been planned for some time, but it hasn't yet been implemented. However, it is coming very soon. Ask thinks he is very nearly ready to make the switch, which will then mean that the SMTP method will be depreciated as testers software gets upgraded to use the new submission method.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
