I had the same problem recently ? I have to speak with the ISP and ask them
to stop resolving mail for my domain ? to their mail servers.

Even though I had them forward my MX record their mail servers still wanted
to control the flow of my mail..

Hello Guys/Gals!

 

I've migrated a customer's email infrastructure this saturday, where he
previously had his email all hosted on an ISP with POP3 mailboxes. Now he
has his own mail server inside, we published SMTP outside, and I've kept his
DNS zone in the same ISP where he had the mailboxes, just asked them to
change the MX address.

 

It all worked wonderfully, except that some domains are still sending mail
to their former e-mail server! I've checked that the DNS is correctly
configured, both of my DNS server are pointing to the correct MX. (tested it
thru dnsstuff.com). All tests passed!

 

My question is: how come? If there were cached responses on ISP's out there,
they already should have expired.

 

Any clues?
