Well, it may or may not be the problem, if you do
problemdomain.com @ns1.mynameserver.net MX
You should get the MX records
CNAME is causing many problems, particularly since bind
8.23, 9.1x
are more aware of the correct use of CNAME than older
versions.
Try the MX, and if nothing else get rid of the CNAME.
