I had a problem like this about 4 months ago while setting up a
NetBSD/i386 box to do DNS and mail service for my LAN.  I solved the
problem by adding two lines to Ruleset 0: 

R$+ < @ $+ . $D >     $#local $: @ $1            x@y.wcrb.com --> local
R$+ < @ $D . >        $#local $: @ $1            x@wcrb.com --> local
