If you want to continue to receive mail addressed to 
<mailbox>@MDCCLXXVI.com then you'll need an entry:

MDCCLXXVI.com = mail.MDCCLXXVI.com

and, if you have an entry:

mail.MDCCLXXVI.com = MDCCLXXVI.com

you'll need to remove it.  Also, if you have any entries for other 
domains that you host, like:

<*@some.domain> = MDCCLXXVI.com

you should change that to:

<*@some.domain> = mail.MDCCLXXVI.com

basically, all references to MDCCLXXVI.com should be changed to 
mail.MDCCLXXVI.com.
