I have a domain called domain.net and have no email server
on site. I have our mail being hosted by another company
and it is being hosted as domain.net. We use the MS
outlook client 2000 for mail. I think that I am not able
to get mail because the DNS server can not find the mail
server on our domain. How do you configure your email
when you domain is the same as you mail domain not on the
same server?

You need to create a new host named mail in your local domain.net Forward
Lookup Zone and give it the IP of your externally hosted mail server.
