Thanks for the info!

I guess I should have mentioned that I new it was the wrong IP for the MX.
By Bad!

Isn't there a file that Imail uses to override host IP's  I'll i remember is
that if the dns changed on the other end our server would not know and would
still try to use the IP that we had entered but I cannot remember what the
file is.

It has got to be Monday morning!! AHH

NO PTR:

Belongs to Qwest:

http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/whois.ch?ip=63.148.180.214

Could not telnet to port 23 or 25.

http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=bnfl-ettp.com+

This shows the MX record to be 63.148.180.203.

Here is what DNS expert had to say:

Query: bnfl-ettp.com.   Query type: Any record
Recursive query: Yes    Authoritative answer: Yes
Query time: 280 ms.     Server name: n/a

Answer:
        bnfl-ettp.com.  3600    NS      qwestdns.ettp.net.
        bnfl-ettp.com.  3600    SOA     qwestdns.ettp.net.
                                admin.ettp.net.
                                11      ; serial
                                900     ; refresh (15 minutes)
                                600     ; retry (10 minutes)
                                86400   ; expire (1 day)
                                3600    ; minimum (1 hour)
        bnfl-ettp.com.  3600    MX      10  ettp-mail.bnfl-ettp.com.

Additional:
        qwestdns.ettp.net.      3600    A       63.148.180.34
        ettp-mail.bnfl-ettp.com.        3600    A       63.148.180.203
