Help: mail settings on DNS file

Hello

I have the domain "in.cx"
and I am using the public DNS at www.granitecanyon.com
so I have to edit the DNS file by myself,
even though I don't know anything about DNS...

So I tried to edit this file somehow
and I was able to web addressing
(even with DNS wildcards!).
So:  " http://www.in.cx "  and  " http://whatever.in.cx "  do work!

However I am not able to make MAIL work also.
I do not know how to do this,
and I hope that someone can help me
(see my DNS file below).

I posted this message a few months ago and someone
told me to read certain books and to learn what DNS is.
However, I do not want to do this...
If someone can help me, it's fine,
otherwise I will keep my domain *without* mail features...

Thanks in any case
