Well, actually

<*@company1.com> - cl1-*

but, you knew that.

If you use this, then to answer your question above:  Yes, you clients 
will have to change their settings.

It would be more like:

company1.com.          MX  10  mail.idealzone.net

Correct.

And:

mail.company1.com      A   new IP address

or, you could set mail.company1.com as a CNAME to mail.idealzone.net 
(this way if you change IPs you will only need to change the A record for 
mail.idealzone.net).
