The problem has been fixed. I have attached some results from testing.
The problem was that I did not put the IP addresses of my Telecommunication Companies DNS lookup in the /etc/resolv.conf
Thank You for your time

This one is faulty, zonecheck reports that the lowest prio MX host
is a CNAME
It also has problems commi ucating with dns.tsw.com.au (203.58.62.2)
but that might be an higly restricted nameserver.
> capricorniacu.com.au
is more problematic,
both ns1.telstra.net and dns.tsw.com.au refuses to
answer authoratitiv.
