I'm glad it was something simpler than what I thought it would be. Heaven
knows, I always seem to go for the harder options. Sorry for the wild
goose chase.

Port 53 has to be opened as TCP for zone transfers, and UDP for DNS
lookups.

Well, then, you'll need to set the firewall to do SNAT for the outbound
connections from your mail server.
Of course, NAT only works if you have multiple external IP addresses to
use. Otherwise, no matter what your router's config calls it, if you only
have one IP to use, it's MASQ, not NAT.

Actualy it is NAT.
The firewall is a DL-604 D-Link DSL Router.
The mail server is behind it.

you're simply port forwarding.
You're firewall isn't set up to properly do MASQ from what I'm surmising.
You need to make sure that your firewall has:
$IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
