Here is my hosts file.

127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.1.103  mail.MYDOMAIN.com mail

Here is my split dns setup

edit /etc/bind/named.conf.options

forwarders { 
xx.xx.xx.xx; xx.xx.xx.xx;   Now are these the nameserver numbers from router going to local internet provider?
};

Append to /etc/bind/named.conf.local

	// We are the master server for mail.MYDOMAIN.com
	zone "mail.MYDOMAIN.com" {
		type master;
		file "db.mail.MYDOMAIN.com";
};

create the zone file: /var/cache/bind/db.mail.MYDOMAIN.com

;
;       Addresses and other host information.
;
@       IN      SOA     mail.MYDOMAIN.com. mail.MYDOMAIN.com. (
                               10118      ; Serial
                               43200      ; Refresh

                               2592000 )  ; Minimum
;       Define the nameservers and the mail servers
               IN      NS      xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx  Is this internal ip address 192.168.1.103?
               IN      A       xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx   same as above then  192.168.1.103
               IN      MX      10 mail.MYDOMAIN.com.

# modify /etc/resolv.conf
change upstream name servers to your own IP:
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx would this be internal ip again 192.168.1.103
# /etc/init.d/bind reload
# to test it, nslookup mail.MYDOMAIN.com should point to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Here is what my nslookup looks like then

Server:         192.168.1.103
Address:        192.168.1.103#53

Name:   mail.tickus.com
Address: 192.168.1.103

root@mail:/home/nick#
