So if I understand this correctly, since there is an MX record it will
send the mail to what's in there, right? The frustrating part is that
I don't know if the MX is correct. According to the hosting company
NOTHING has changed even though I have had to correct it 3 times
already just to get mail to come in.

I don't either, because you didn't post the MX or for that fact, your domain
isn't posted either so I could check it.
If mail is supposed to go to your barracuda box, you need an A record that
gives the barracuda host name, and an MX record that points to this name
record.
You need records simular to these:
@ MX 10 barracudabox.mydomain.com
barracudabox A 12.XXX.XXX.XXX
