canonical name ?
 
I am getting this error in the mail logs:

"Unable to get canonical name of client 192.168.0.25: Host name lookup failure (2)"

I can't send mail from MS Outlook or Eudora, I can however send messages from pine and read them from any windows or Linux mail clients.

DNS error on reverse IP check.
Check record for host (PTR?).

Thanks for your reply, I really appreciate it.

I got the DNS working but now I can't send mail using windows MSOutlook or Eudora, but I can do this with webmin or pine withing the server itself. It seems like qmail is not taking external connections.
