Ok so fixing the mx record put me back to where emails sent to user@xxxxxxxxx are no longer returned to sender. However they still do not come show up on my Linux system? Would this indicate that my ISP (optonline.net) is filtering out this traffic? (as a note I have not set anything up past postfix yet. And I have been checking w/ webmin to see if messages are coming through, so maybe I should set up the other mail services?)
Your suggestions greatly appreciated.

Do a ps aux |grep postfix ... If you see a process called master , then it's running. Otherwise , do a tail -f /var/log/maillog and , with it running , do a service postfix restart. You'll see on maillog all the errors that are preventing you from running postfix..
Also , you can do a cat /var/mail/username to see if a message sent to an user called username really got through..
