Setting up records for virtually hosted web domains: is this good syntax?

I have a question, in 2 parts, about properly formatting some records
for virtually hosted domains. I have run various checks on these,
including a "delint" program, but I am looking for some additional
input. First, I stuck a "glue" type of record in there, so that
references to p1.acadia.net would have an "A" record. Is that the
correct way to refer to an IP for a virtually hosted domain?
Secondly, I stuck the "@" record in theire for all those people that
want "mydomain.com" instead of "www.mydomain.com" to work.
Is that also good syntax? BTW I am running BIND 8.2.1
