For any DNS problems:
http://www.dnsreport.com

And for your domain the report
http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=nerdulator.net shows
several problems.

ns1.everydns.net is missing from your nameserver
ns1.nerdulator.net. has a CNAME entry (nerdulator.net)
NO MX records for nerdulator.net

And if you want to see the actual binary response from a DNS server with a
breakout of each record, you can use my little toy at:
