Hi, I am helping someone setup there DNS for a .biz domain name, as they unable to change nameservers I told them to setup an A Record to point to the server IP, that works fine However I told them to put the same IP for the MX Record and, I checked it at introdns.com and it says: ERROR: Some of your MX records returned by your nameservers are IP addresses. This is not ok per the RFCs and you should change them. The problem records are: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx This can cause problems ! What should they put for there MX Record ?

You should set the MX as follows. domain.com. 14400 IN MX 0 domain.com.
