That tells you exactly what the problem is. You can have only CNAME
entries for a given host, or you can have some combination of the other
resource records.

That's your problem. Also, I can pretty much guarantee that your MX
records aren't doing what you think they're doing. You should really get
a copy of DNS and BIND, 3rd Edition and read it cover to cover. Keep
your zones simple, and make sure you know what each record is doing when
you add it, then test with dig to make sure that what you wanted to
change actually changed.
Good luck,
Doug
