MX records are machine names that have A records that are configured to
handle mail for the domain/host name you are specifying and I don't
believe host names are supposed to have @ signs in them according to the
RFC. Somebody please correct me if I am wrong. It looks to me like you are
specifying an email address instead of a host name in your MX records.
Also, once you specify a host name in the MX record remember to put a
period (.) after the host name.
