i had an email server
email.myserver.com     with a corresponding  nameserver ns1.myserver.com

and now, i have a new email server
email.myserver.net   with a corresponding nameserver ns1.myserver.net


since email.myserver.com is down i wanted all emails destined for the .com
domain to goto .net domain.

I changed the mx entry in ns1.myserver.com from
email.myserver.com to email.myserver.net

now when i query the mx entry after logging into the ns1.myserver.com box, i
get the correct and updated value ( email.netcustomer.net)

where as, if i login into my ns1.myserver.net and query for the mx entry it
says

 nslookup
Default Server:  ns1.myserver.net
Address:  203.X.X.136
> set type=MX
> myserver.com
Server:  ns1.myserver.net
Address:  203.X.X.136

Non-authoritative answer:
myserver.com   preference = 10, mail exchanger = email.myserver.com

Authoritative answers can be found from:
myserver.com   nameserver = ns1.myserver.com
email.myserver.com     internet address = 203.X.X.140


and all mails which are sent from outside of the email.myserver.net box,
with the to address as [EMAIL PROTECTED] are not reaching email.myserver.net

why is my ns1.myserver.net not getting the new value from the
ns1.myserver.com DNS ?
anybody can please explain ?
