ok, I see the page to change it, but I'm not sure what to put for the MX 
hostname..
Mail Routing:
 Yes, let me configure Email routing. [?]
MX Hostname:
Primary:
 Yes, use it as my primary mail relay. [?]
 No, use it as backup MX record. [?]


should the MX hostname just be the name of the server, as in 
pauls-server.homelinux.org, or do you/should you add 
mail.pauls-server.homelinux.org ?
If I add the mail.xxxx do I just have to add it to my /etc/hosts, or rerun the 
dpkg-reconfigure..
