not receiving Mails / DNS settings for dynDNS

Hi everybody,

I have successfully setup MAC OS X server in advanced configuration mode.
Then added one website plus another two virtual websites. They all work great, fast and as expected.
Since I don't have a static IP .I use the afraid.org dynDNS updated and name server.
I then have followed how to setup virtual users and make the changes in postfix. http://osx.topicdesk.com/content/view/45/41/

this all worked great and users seem to be separated on their associated hosts/virtual hosts.

I can go into squirrelmail from all those different accounts and send mail out .
But here is my problem: I can't receive any mail allthough my mail clients are connecting and stay connected in either MAC MAIL or SQUIRRELMAIL.
Nothing is coming into the inbox.
I have read all kinds of articles the last few days and I am probably confused about the DNS settings in my case.

Question: Do I have to have another "MX" record in my DNS server plus a "A" record that points to my mail.domain.com . All though it is already defined at afraid.org 's Nameserver ?

Question2: And if yes I would have to point it to the local address of my server. Is that correct ? Would that work .

I also don't know what to provide for you too look at . /etc/postfix/main.cf or publicView.conf.apple ?

Thank you

Csaba
