I'm not sure why you're so confused, since you managed to figure it out
for the MX record, and the A record is done exactly the same way.
couchblip.com. IN A 202.173.134.101
BTW, MX records shouldn't point to CNAME records, they should point to A
records. So either change your MX record to point to www, or change
mail from a CNAME record to an A record.
