If I dig for the domain I get the ocrrect IP for the mail server.
C:\>dig @server mail.itsfx.com
; <<>> DiG 9.2.2 <<>> @server mail.itsfx.com
;; global options: printcmd

Therefore DNS has not updated correctly to tell the world that the mail
server is at 64.35.113.113 and not 64.35.113.119. Check your DNS server and
make sure the zone file shows something like
IN MX 10 mail.itsfx.com.
mail IN A 64.35.113.113
Increment the serial number one and reload the zone file.
