It looks like it's correct from here. I tried my dns server and both dns21 & dns22.register.com and no MX records show.

I am afraid, this is not correct.

Levenfeld.com has MX record that points to mail.levenfeld.com

I personally set it up since I am the domain owner. I just double-checked it through my registration point (www.register.com) and high priority MX points to mail.levenfeld.com

This server is in operation for about a year and I never had anyone complaining about not being able to send e-mail to this domain.

Although most mail servers will check the A record if no MX record exists, the program on our web site doesn't do that.
