Well, I'm not exactly an expert, but your MX record certainly isn't  
propagated - I think the above definition must be wrong. Why does it  
say "@" where it's supposed to say mail.szabgab.com?

Yes, the trailing dot is supposed to be there - in every record that  
is not resolved to an IP number but a hostname.
