Right you need to set up an A record for something like mail.westcomuk.com
that points to 81.168.76.189.
Once you have done that you need to set your MX record to point to
mail.westcomuk.com rather than
81.168.76.189.
Then you need to actually put a mail server at 81.168.76.189. I pinged it
without fail but try
to connect on port 110 or 25 and guess what...nothing!
you will also need to set the MX record for westcom-uk.com to
mail.westcomuk.com.
You should then be ok.
