he meant that the domain has been created a few days ago, and so "should
not start sending too much mail". Such argument must be used with
caution. Few years ago, I have worked on a (social net style) project
and marketing decided to chose a new name. The new domain thus started
sending a lot of mail few days after it was registered.

The same caution is needed when trying to detect domains that only
started sending mail recently.

Trying to use the age (be it "whois age" of "date of first mail") is not
very "practical". it may be used while investigating on a suspicious
domain.

he has only one name server (75.144.35.66) and it is not responding. he
should setup a secondary NS, as recommended by the RFCs...
