DNS problems: can't send mail

Hi XMailers!
  I have a strange problem with my Xmail server 1.25 running on an NSLU2 with Kamikaze 8.09 OS.  The server is behind a router at address 192.168.1.1. I am unable to send mail, though I can receive it.

The error I get with SmartDNSHost DISABLED is:

ErrCode   = -200
ErrString = Bad format for DNS name record
SMAIL SMTP-Send EDNS = "yahoo.com" SMTP = "XXX.XXX" From = "root@localhost" To = "XXX@..." Failed !
SMTP-Error = "Bad format for DNS name record"
SMTP-Server = "yahoo.com"

with  SmartDNSHost set to my router ("SmartDNSHost" "192.168.1.1:udp,192.168.1.1:tcp"), I get this:

ErrCode   = -109
ErrString = Unable to get UDP DNS response
SMAIL SMTP-Send EDNS = "yahoo.com" SMTP = "XXX.XXX" From = "root@localhost" To = "XXX@..." Failed !
SMTP-Error = "Unable to get UDP DNS response"
SMTP-Server = "yahoo.com"

I have tried to set SmartDNSHost to my local ISPs DNS server with the same result.

Dig and nslookup both work from the server on which XMail is running:

dig yahoo.com mx
;; Query time: 27 msec
;; SERVER: 192.168.1.1#53(192.168.1.1)
;; WHEN: Fri Nov  6 20:16:46 2009
;; MSG SIZE  rcvd: 509


I am a noob at this so it's very possible that I am missing something.
  Thanks in advance for your help!
       Regards,
         Silvio Lopez

P.S. I got the XMail package from: http://downloads.openwrt.org/kamikaze/8.09/ixp4xx/packages/xmail_1.25-1_armeb.ipk

Is that system Big Endian by any chance?
If yes, they likely did not build XMail with the proper macros set.

Hi Davide,
  Thanks for the reply.  Yes, I believe it is Big Endian.  Are there any tests I can run to see if the package was built correctly? Is it time for me to experiment with making from source?
   Thanks!

Try to build it yourself.
After that, show me the generated SysMachine.h file ...
