Thanks again...
I should have looked instead of trusting the company who handles that domain
authority. I asked for it to be set up as mail.walkerschools.org, but I
guess it's a good thing in this case that it is set up otherwise.
<Off Topic> By the way, does anyone know of any legal precedent for
obtaining one's domain from an ISP? I walked into this job after they had
set up their servers at a local ISP (who bought the domain name in their own
name). We now provide our own network service and have a server facility of
our own. They say that the papers have been signed and Notarized to
transfer the domain to us, but every time my boss goes over or calls about
signing his lines on the papers, the necessary person is unavailable. This
has been going on for months.

You are welcome!
This is your current DNS data:
walkerschools.org.
168.11.208.10
nameserver = ns1.highertech.net.
nameserver = ns2.highertech.net.
nameserver = arrakis.chattanooga.net.
nameserver = ns2.chattanooga.net.
10, walkerschools.org.
mail.walkerschools.org.
10, walkerschools.org.
168.11.208.10
Actually your MX does not point to mail.walkerschools.org!
Since both use the same IP, I can see no reason to make any changes.
I would have expected the MX to point to mail (as you did!), in your current
configuration, but since that is not true, no need to change now.
