Well, I'm not sure what else is going on, but the lone MX record for
'ectu.com' seems to point at a non-existant host, so you might want to
fix that first.

$ dig ectu.com mx

;; ANSWER SECTION:
ectu.com.        3600    IN    MX    10 dnspri1.ectu.com.


$ telnet dnspri1.ectu.com 25
telnet: dnspri1.ectu.com: Name or service not known
dnspri1.ectu.com: Unknown host

$ dig dnspri1.ectu.com any

; <<>> DiG 9.1.3 <<>> dnspri1.ectu.com any any
;; global options: printcmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NXDOMAIN, id: 29846
