This does look like an MX issue someplace. Have you tried sending mail to
anyone@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx?
Using Net Demon:
--- verify e-mail "anyone@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
--- looking up mailexchange for mail.webgeek.com
--- contacting nameserver 24.2.3.33 (24.2.3.33)
--- unable to find mailexchange, contacting mail.webgeek.com
#Note that line above: "unable to find mailexchange" I *think* indicates a
problem#
--- contacting host mail.webgeek.com [64.39.237.115]
