After Bind 9.1.0 can't access mail - mail issue solved!

[Ralph Brown]

I found that I had changed a setting on my firewall which restricted access
to the node that I run my mail client on.


.....however, I am still get "server not found" when trying to access web
pages on g4.policng.net.

Thanks! in advance!  (1 down, 2-3 more to go :)
