No, it doesn't really matter. It can be anywhere you want.

However, in this case, you're using an MX record without
specifying a label, and therefore it will pick up the last label you
used as a default. In this case, it *DOES* make a difference where
you list the MX record. Try putting an explicit label on the MX
record, and it won't matter where you put it.
