Your MX record is invalid, because "mail.credochs.org" is not
defined. Also, you should have an MX record for the domain itself to
avoid unecessary lookups. Assuming you really do want people to be
able to address mail to "user at anyname.CREDOCHS.ORG" as well as
"user at CREDOCHS.ORG", the MX record avove should be replaced with
credochs.org. IN MX 10 credochs.org.
*.credochs.org. IN MX 10 credochs.org. ; GLOBALOK
This has nothing to do with resolving your IP address, of course.
That seems to be working fine.

They do for me. Perhaps you were hitting a server that still has old
data in its cache.
