RR's are the records in DNS that specify the contents of your domain.  For
instance, to have www.yourdomain.com point to the IP address 1.2.3.4, you
create the record:

www.yourdomain.com.  A  1.2.3.4

I'm afraid that I can't teach you everything you need to know in order to
manage DNS in an email.  You really need to get the book "DNS & BIND" to
learn it.
