I would hazard a guess that your outbound email packets are being
dropped somewhere. Try using telnet on your mail server to connect to
port 25 of the remote mail server (mail.appl-ecosys.com.) and see what
happens.

Also, check your mail log file.

You may have to have a list of domains that you continue to relay
through your ISP's mail server. You would do this with a transport
map.
