Email being sent to wrong host for domain

I recently changed hosting companies for my domain, which should include the website itself as well as all the email accounts.

It appears that my system (using Outlook XP on XP Professional) insists on sending email to the old host, despite the fact that it's addressed to the email_account@mydomain.com, not a specific IP.

Email sent from other sources is being delivered to the new host correctly.

I've gone so far as to wipe my entire system and reinstall everything from scratch, hoping it was a left over bit of info, but I still have the same problem.

Is anyone aware of what may be be causing this problem? Tech support for both hosting companies doesn't want to do MS Outlook support, and MS support is too expensive.
