Change your records to this:

del-wells.com.	IN A		12.19.123.112
		IN MX	10	mail.del-wells.com.
mail            IN A		12.19.123.113
		IN MX	10	mail.del-wells.com.
www             IN CNAME	del-wells.com.
		IN MX	10	mail.del-wells.com.


However, if this is the zone file for del-wells.com, you may as well write
it this way:

@		IN A		12.19.123.112
		IN MX	10	mail
mail		IN A		12.19.123.113
		IN MX	10	mail
www		IN CNAME	@
		IN MX	10	mail

since BIND will assume the zone ("del-wells.com") at the end of all
host entries that do not end with a period.

Enjoy!
