DNS question

Maybe I'm over thinking this or missing something - but I need help.

We are in the process of trying to migrate our web presence to a shorter domain name. Essentially, our internal domain will remain alongerdomainname.com, while our website / email addresses will change to short.com. I've registered the new domain name and I'm having trouble getting the MX records to point to our internally hosted exchange server.

I tried to reference the way our current DNS records are setup, but I'm having trouble finding the correct people that I need to talk to get this changed. I've contacted the company that hosts our website, the registrars of our current domain name, and our ISP - but none of them are handling our external DNS. I'd like to reference our current DNS information to see how / where it's pointing.

My question: How can I find out who to contact? I've done a dnsreport and found the NS records at th parent servers are: dca-ans-01.inet.qwest.net and sv1-ans-01.inet.qwest.net.

I don't know about dnsreport, but if you go to http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/index.jsp and enter your domain name, it will give you the contact info for the responsible parties.
