Hi,
Thanks for all your response. looks like their DNS MX record not set
correctly.
Here is the some more answers.

Because there is no MX record for this domain:
dig tsgcapital.net mx
; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> tsgcapital.net mx
;; global options: printcmd
;; Got answer:

So all mail will queue for 5 days and the get purged, unless they
populate an MX record before the 5 days are up....
