Thanks for the response.  DNS now contains:

www.domain1.com. in a 192.168.20.66
raq550.domain1.com. in a 192.168.20.66
domain1.com. in mx 20 raq550.domain1.com
domain1.com. in a 192.168.20.66

However I'm still receiving "MX list for domain1.com. points back to
raq550.domain1.com" error.  Any other hints?
