I can get mail sometimes and not others.

"The nameserver for your domain is malfunctioning.

[linux-dev ph:~] host -t mx lockie.ca
Nameserver not responding
lockie.ca MX record not found, try again

[linux-dev ph:~] host ns.lockie.ca
ns.lockie.ca            A       24.141.149.99";


Here is the zone file for lockie.ca

@       IN      SOA     ns.lockie.ca.   postmaster.lockie.ca. (
                        2002101802      ; serial
                        ; 28800         ; refresh
                        360             ; refresh
                        14400           ; retry
                        3600000         ; expire
                        86400           ; default_ttl
                        )

                IN      A       24.141.149.99
                MX      10      mx.lockie.ca.
                NS              ns.lockie.ca.

localhost       IN      A       127.0.0.1

mx              IN      A       24.141.149.99
ns              IN      A       24.141.149.99

www             IN      A       24.141.149.99
mail            IN      A       24.141.149.99
sftp            IN      A       24.141.149.99


I have no idea what I did wrong.
It works from the inside and most people can send me mail (and this domain can sometimes).

It seems to work from the inside.
# host -t mx lockie.ca
lockie.ca mail is handled by 10 mx.lockie.ca.

Can somebody see what I did wrong?
