Gmail MX Records on Hetzner

[SukkaFoo]

Hi All;

Did a search and can't seem to find a semi decent guide on how to set up the gmail MX records on Hetzners control panel. I have entered the record as follows:

alt1.aspmx.l.google.com	      	IN	MX 2	ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
alt2.aspmx.l.google.com	      	IN	MX 3	ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
aspmx.l.google.com  	      	IN	MX 1	ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
aspmx2.googlemail.com	      	IN	MX 4	ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.COM.
aspmx3.googlemail.com	      	IN	MX 5	ASPMX3.GOOGLEMAIL.COM

Can someone possibly guide me as to what I am doing incorrectly?

It should look something like this (extract from our hetzner config):

@                   	      	IN	MX 1 	ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
imap                	      	IN	CNAME	mail
mail                	      	IN	CNAME	ghs.google.com.

SukkaFoo:
I think you configured the MX records for the Google hostnames and not for your own domain.

Like if I run 'dig mydomain.za.net mx' (where mydomain.za.net is just the replacement for my actual domain name), I get the following results:

Thanks, this worked perfectly.
