Try changing the order a bit. In /etc/hosts:
216.64.108.209 mailsrv.image-src.com mailsrv
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
And I'll assume you have something like the following in /etc/resolv.conf:
domain inage-src.com
nameserver 198.243.2.200
nameserver 198.243.1.97
That's how mine look on a 6.2 server and I've had no problems to speak of
with DNS resolution.
