How will I received mail from outside if I don't use forwards for outside.
You are confusing the meaning of forwarding. In dns it's used to forward queries to other servers that can answer them. It has nothing to do with mail.
The port forwarding that I guess you are talking about, is when you configure a router to forward packets from an external IPort to an internal IPort

From the above MX lookup your domain is using a public mail server. You can setup fetchmail to get the mails from this server and deliver them locally to your users. There are lots of tutorials on the net about that, so you can use google to find one that fits your needs.
I've seen your other thread about the reverse proxy and apache.
I might answer there if I can understand what you're trying to do, so please edit your other post and add more details
