Actually it was this:

@       IN      SOA     rnd-consulting.com.     hostmaster.orci.com. (
						990111  ; Serial number
						172800  ; Refresh every 2 days
						3600    ; Retry every hour
						1728000 ; Expire every 20 days
						172800 ); Minimum 2 days
;
	IN      NS      rocky.orci.com.
	IN      NS      boris.orci.com.
	IN      MX      5 mail.rnd-consulting.com.
;
rnd-consulting.com.     IN      A       207.174.68.94
;
;
wally.rnd-consulting.com.        IN      A       207.174.68.94
hostmaster.rnd-consulting.com.          IN      CNAME   rnd-consulting.com.
mail.rnd-consulting.com.          IN      CNAME   rnd-consulting.com.



I just changed the last one to:
mail.rnd-consulting.com.        IN      A       207.174.68.94
