After Bind 9.1.0 can't access mail

I have just configured Bind on RH 7.1, but noticed that my mail client, on a
different node, can not retrieve mail? I can get mail from the mail client
on the RH node just fine.

Also, I am unable to get a node "g4" to serve up via DNS. I can pull up web
pages from this node via IP#, but not by name " g4.policing.net" ??

Suggestions please
Thanks in advance!

Here is my named.conf file:

## named.conf - configuration for bind
#

options {
        directory "/var/named/";

forwarders {
  206.13.28.12;
  206.13.30.12;

};

};


zone  "." {
        type hint;
        file  "named.ca";
};


zone "policing.net" {
type master;
file "db.policing.net";
};


zone  "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file  "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa.zone";
};
zone  "123.168.192-in.addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file  "db.123.168.192";
};

Here is db.123.168.192 :
