ok, so I dropped my domain host, and setup my Debian server to host my own 
domain. No email... I have my domain registrar setup, but I need DNS/BIND 
setup ( I think??)

my debian box is behind my router, which now has a static IP 208.65.88.107

I have BIND now up and running, but it has been 15 years since I've worked 
with DNS..
here is what I have: dig pcartwright.com:
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;pcartwright.com.		IN	A

;; ANSWER SECTION:
pcartwright.com.	604800	IN	A	208.65.88.107

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
pcartwright.com.	604800	IN	NS	ns1.example.com.
pcartwright.com.	604800	IN	NS	ns2.example.com.

here is my current config files:
/etc/bind/named.conf.local
zone "pcartwright.com" {
       type master;
       file "/etc/bind/pcartwright.com.db";
};
zone "107.88.65.208.IN-ADDR.ARPA" {
       type master;
       file "/etc/bind/208.65.88.107.rev";
};

any hints/tips/corrections/suggestions?
I thought atnex was giving me a ptr file for 
mail.pcartwright.com ->pcartwright.com but I'm not sure it is still there..
