The important information is the address that the query was sent _to_,
it's that which is used to do the filtering, not the address it was sent
from. We don't have that information in your post.

Just to be sure, check that the netmasks are right on the two interfaces
on networks 172.16.0.0/16 and 10.0.0.0/8
