Data from syslog console:

Outgoing mail working well

Any help will be appreciated.

This warning says that pmgpolicy seems not to be running, which is confirmed by:
Jul 05 18:55:41 bak-mailgateway pmgpolicy[712739]: getaddrinfo: Temporary failure in name resolution at /usr/share/perl5/PVE/Tools.pm line 1473.

On a hunch:
* make sure you have a correct entry for your PMG's IP in /etc/hosts
* make sure you have configured a correct domain-name as search domain in /etc/resolv.conf
* make sure you have a working DNS-resolver configured in /etc/resolv.conf

If this does not help - please post `pmgconfig dump`
