-NickServ- Could not dispatch registration e-mail: dial tcp 64.182.101.45:25: connectex: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.

Sorry about the delay, I missed this somehow. We look up the MX record for the domain, then resolve the resulting name to an A or AAAA record and dial port 25 on that address. It sounds like your MX record is misconfigured so that it points (indirectly) to 64.182.101.45, when it should be pointing to 192.168.5.202? Are you able to receive email at this domain normally?

You're sending an email to, e.g. accountname@[11.22.33.44] ? Apparently that's the syntax for sending to an IP address, but it's not recommended: https://www.serviceobjects.com/blog/ip-address-vs-domain-in-an-email-address/
