There's your problem right there ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You cannot have an MX record point to an IP address. it must point to
the Fully Qualified Domain Name of the box that the mail server is
running on.
Their (atpe.org) DNS also list your hcwsrv2.hillcountryweb.com server as
authoritative for their zone when in fact it's not. here's the result of
a dig command I did on your server:
; <<>> DiG 2.2 <<>> @hcwsrv2.hillcountryweb.com atpe.org any
; (1 server found)

Go take DNS lessons. You need a lot of help. The issue is not with
iMail, but with DNS mis-configuration.
