>when I do a dig or nslookup I get the dns of the isp

 From my Paris mail hub:

# dig mainst-usa.com mx

; <<>> DiG 8.2 <<>> mainst-usa.com mx
;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch
;; got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 4
;; flags: qr aa rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1
;; QUERY SECTION:

;; ANSWER SECTION:
mainst-usa.com.         1H IN MX        10 mx.ntwebhosting.com.

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
mx.ntwebhosting.com.    1H IN A         208.20.99.5

The above MX is NOT what you want? Then get your ISP to change the MX to 
point where you want it.

One of yr problems:  The ns in the SOA is not authoritative for your domain.
