Using a subdomain as mail server

I'm just wondering how can I set up a subdomain mail.mysite.com to catch all the mail coming to mysite.com. The domain and its subdomain are in different boxes (ISPConfig is handling the subdomain).

My idea was to create in ISPConfig the domain mail.mysite.com, but then the mail addresses are [email protected], and I want them [email protected], any idea where to find more information about this?

 

OK, what about the webmail?, users can log in with [email protected]?

And what about DNS? Should I create an A record pointint to the IP address of domain.com box, another A record pointing to the IP address of mail.domain.com and an MX record pointing to mail.domain.com?
