I think you need to read up about DNS and MX records. When a mail server
attempts to send email to a domain, it will query for the MX records for
the domain. So:

# host -t mx eu-bomca.org
eu-bomca.org mail is handled by 40 undp-link.elcat.kg.
eu-bomca.org mail is handled by 5 212-42-113-235.elcat.kg.
eu-bomca.org mail is handled by 10 mail.taide.net.

This says that 212-42-113-235.elcat.kg is the primary MX.

I thought I would try connecting to it "manually" to test it:

# telnet 212-42-113-235.elcat.kg 25
Trying 212.42.113.235...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out
