Hello, wocmail.westernoverseas.local?  Since when is .local a TLD?

Well, there's your problem:  Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service

Someone needs to get an RFC-compliant e-mail server.  I suggest
sendmail or postfix on Linux or *BSD.  Also needs an admin that has a
clue (knows the .local isn't a TLD).

Since .local won't resolve much less reverse, my mail server won't
talk to it (and neither should yours).
