This may not be a good test.  For me I just go to any Unix or Linux server,
run nslookup,
connect to any dns server in the internet, the used that server to verify
whether my
dns record is correct.  One good way is to do a recursive search to see
whether it go
thru the ISP dns, the dns before firewall, and may be the int dns etc....
 
You go to the dns discussion grp they will ask you to use the utility "dig"
that came with BIND.

Hi all,

When I use the following site  <http://www.dnsreport.com>
http://www.dnsreport.com and type our mailserver  in the mail test field I
got the following messege “Getting MX record for mail.kuwait-fund.org...
There is no MX record for mail.kuwait-fund.org!  That's bad.

Checking for an A record... Got it!

But we have the MX record on our dns server !!!

And we are able to send and receive emails!!!
