Two different names and functions. Call it the DNS hostname whatever
you want in whatever domain you want.

why not call it something more articulate:
@ MX mx2000.cshore.com. ; mail servers send mail here
; for the 2000 users.
mail MX mx2000.cshore.com. ; ditto
;
pop A ip.ad.re.ss ; 2000 users read mail here
smtp A ip.ad.re.ss ; 2000 users send mail here
webmail A ip.ad.re.xx ; 2000 users do webmail here
>I will only run a single domain on this box.
That's the only way you can drop the fully qualified login, without
@domain.com. All virtuals need the fully qualified account name.

no. Before the switch, reduce your TTL on that zone from 1d to 1h,
let a day pass to less cached records expire, do the switch, raise
the TTL to 1d.
