Well, where's the message?  This one came via hub, so it can't be
permanent:

Received: from rocksalt.mui.net ([207.12.13.235])
          by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA07817
          for <freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG>; Sat, 14 Mar 1998 20:38:24 -0800 (PST)

On the other hand, it doesn't take much investigation to discover that
you don't have reverse mapping for this address:

> set type=soa
> mui.net.
Server:  localhost.lemis.com
Address:  127.0.0.1

mui.net
        origin = rocksalt.mui.net
        mail addr = root.mui.net
        serial = 98031402
        refresh = 3600 (1 hour)
        retry   = 900 (15 mins)
        expire  = 604800 (7 days)
        minimum ttl = 3600 (1 hour)
mui.net nameserver = rocksalt.mui.net
mui.net nameserver = prune.mui.net
rocksalt.mui.net        internet address = 207.12.13.235
prune.mui.net   internet address = 207.12.13.234
> set type=a
> 207.12.13.235
Server:  localhost.lemis.com
Address:  127.0.0.1

*** localhost.lemis.com can't find 207.12.13.235: Non-existent host/domain

You should fix your reverse mapping.  See "The Complete FreeBSD",
second edition (http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm), starting
on page 399.
