You apparently have five A records with different IP addresses for your server, that's not good and needs to be fixed:

Code:
dig pochta.ru mx

; <<>> DiG 9.7.1-P2 <<>> pochta.ru mx
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 37722
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 5

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;pochta.ru.                     IN      MX

;; ANSWER SECTION:
pochta.ru.              150     IN      MX      5 mx.pochta.ru.

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
mx.pochta.ru.           150     IN      A       62.141.94.151
mx.pochta.ru.           150     IN      A       62.141.94.153
mx.pochta.ru.           150     IN      A       62.141.94.155
mx.pochta.ru.           150     IN      A       62.141.94.154
mx.pochta.ru.           150     IN      A       62.141.94.152
