you could start by doing a whois on their domain and finding out what
their nameservers are, and query them whith your domain. They may or
may not be using those same mail servers in their mail, but it would be
a reasonable guess that they do, and a place to start, if the
nameservers don't resolve properly you can tell the admin so.
