(Operating with an abundance of caution 

There is an include file for each domain in the dns. Look in
/var/named/chroot/var/named
For a file like db.yourdomain.com.include (this will not get overwritten by
the GUI.)

Add a line like the following: (or look in db.yourdomain.com for the format)

yourdomain.com.     in mx 10 mail.yourdomain.com.

The do:
service named reload

And you should be all set.

I hope that helps.
