Have your DNS administrator update (or remove) the MX record for cluster.msu.com. Mail will try to route to the A record if no MX record exists.

However, this will only work for mail sent to somebody@cluster.msu.com. If you want to receive mail for yourname@msu.com (for example) you'll need to POP/IMAP off your central mailserver, have your mail administrator configure a forward or virtusertable (to route yourname@msa.com to yourname@cluster.msa.com) or use fetchmail or similar.

Cheers,
ZB
