No, the router is my F12 computer that is connected to the Internet and
shares its connection with LAN machines. Sorry if it wasn't too clear.
Should I call it the gateway?
Yes, there's an error in /var/log/maillog on the gateway:

It is the only mention of it in the maillog. If I send messages to
user at 192.168.3.30 (without brackets around addr) then there's nothing in
log files and the message is returned to sender with reason: 550 Host
unknown.
