Ok after fiddling with it a bit I have found that by doing a 'dig mx mail.jzeller.com' I get a correct response to the MX record I setup.

However, when I do a 'dig a mail.jzeller.com' or a 'dig mail.jzeller.com' I do not get the answer section I got with 'dig mx mail.jzeller.com'

So what I am thinking is something in my hosts file still is not correct or something in my Split DNS setup is not right. The question then becomes does this make sense and what is the best way of pinpointing where the issue really is.

Here are the results from my 'dig mail.jzeller.com'

nslookup results (not sure if these make any difference)

Non-authoritative answer:
