From the DNS panel, I've got:
an MX record, priority 10 pointing to spool.mail.gandi.net
Which is wrong, don't forget the dot at the end of the domain name, which is the mark that this is the end of the domain, in the other case it is concatened with your $ORIGIN, which is mumps2py.org here.
So, the MX you set is actually 10 mumps2py.org. -> spool.mail.gandi.net.mumps2py.org. ;-)
I already fixed that in the panel, now you have to wait the spreading of the changement in the dns cache you are using.

" Sorry, I couldn't find a mail exchanger or IP address. (#5.4.4)"
Of course, because spool.mail.gandi.net.mumps2py.org. cannot be resolved.

Same problem here, I fixed those CNAME too.
Yes, but agent.mail.gandi.net.mumps2py.org. is not resolvable too ;-)
Anyway, this is a common mistake by beginners with the DNS system, mainly because we never put the dot at the end of the domain while are browsing the web, ... (Yes, we should do it).
Try: http://www.tuxfamily.org./ ;-)
EDIT: notice that the URL parser of punbb is not even able to deal with the dot at the end
