Can't recieve email but I can send I think its DNS issue

[linkedit]

I am having a lot of problems with configuring my DNS and Zimbra. To start, everything was working fine; I was able to
configure DNS (BIND) I think. DNS servers are properly routing to my website and my zimbra server. I have reverse DNS working fine;
I can send email to gmail.com and it doesn't go to the Spam folder. Where my problem persists is recieving email from the outside and
internally. I did a couple of tests. This is what I get in the log when I try to send an email
that does not exist to my zimbra server using gmail(externally):

I also get this message later on in the log:

I don't see any errors. But when I look into the mailbox there is nothing there! Currently all SMTP(25) port and IMAPS(993) port are running fine.
This is what i get from my hosts file (hostname -f) on the zimbra server :

mail1.linkeditsolutions.com

I followed this guide to setup my DNS:

http://www.wains.be/index.php/2007/12/13/centos-5-chroot-dns-with-bind/

I think i followed it wrong because for mine he was using local IP but I assumed you could use external for the guide. I only
Have one zone set up with external IP's to my website and Zimbra Server. Can anyone help me figure out why I can't recieve
email? Need major help ASAP!

Also note that because of the old server I had to take down the name record that leads to the new email server.
But this is how the ns records look like:

Based on these logs, it looks like there is a setup issue with postfix. It looks like the messages are coming into the queue, being passed to amavis, and then be re-sent to the queue manager as would be expected. The problem seems to occur in that postfix doesn't know how to deliver them.

I will hazzard a guess that you either have a problem with the recipient restrictions (main.cf) or in the LDA (local delivery agent) in master.cf.

What I don't see in the logs is that postfix has DELIVERED any items to a local recipient, just that things are queued up or that the recipient is being rejected.
