either the DNS IMail is using it telling the ip for neweve.com MX is
.4, but that doesn't look to be case:
# dig neweve.com mx
; <<>> DiG 8.3 <<>> neweve.com mx

or
DNS is answering 3, but MX/.3 is not responding so Imail tries
neweve.com at .4, but it looks ok to me:
# telnet 216.235.251.3 25
Trying 216.235.251.3...
Connected to mail.neweve.com.
Escape character is '^]'.

What DNS is Imail using?
