SMTP with MS SBS 2003

i have been through the archives for like two days straight but can't find anything like the problem i am having..
i have set up a small SBS at my house with exchange. all set up ok (i believe) everyone can access the internet and so can the server. can send mail via exchange but can receive it?
i have sent the finger command and it says 90 mails in the queue but nothing happens after that??
i have activated forwarding on the router to the server and set up to receive SMPT to my username.plus.com and the domains activated to SMTP deliver.
but i haven’t touched the MX records as from what i read i didn’t need to unless i select other.. is that correct?
anyone got any idea why i cant receive mail?
any help would be brilliant
thanks

i'm guessing then the MX records are correct so i must have made a mistake on the setup? or am i missing something?

Port 25 is closed on 80.229.156.xx
I’m guessing the router could have a problem! as it is telling me it is open... Will have a play around with it
