Can't get basic postfix working
Followed the guide at
So following the guide I've set my hostname in main.cf (to jamie.mydomain.com), setup the virtual file, run postmap and restarted postfix but no luck yet. Looking in the mail.log it seems some old messages say some email bounced with 550 User does not exist but since the last few days, every email I send to any of my domains fails, and the mail.log hasn't reported anything.
I'm not sure I have the DNS setup correctly and would appreciate any feedback. My hostname is jamie.mydomain.com and I have a DNS A record pointing to my IP called jamie. I have an MX record called mail.mydomain.com (this was added by default). Am I supposed to connect these in some way?
Any help would be much appreciated!

Soooooooooooo tired of the noob twenty questions game.
What information do you require? As you so nicely put it, I'm a 'noob' and therefore am unsure of all the things you would like to see.
