Sorry for just link-spamming, but this really is the best resource for SMTP banner info:

but on which receive connector do I set and what should I set it to > my mx record example "mail.mycompany.com"?
Judging by the name of the connectors I would guess the "default frontend", it sounds like the other connector might be custom specifically for outbound through a filtering or auditing tool.  I would recommend having it respond with your public mail address  (mail.company.com  is usually pretty close).  If you're very concerned about getting tagged as SPAM it would be good to start advertising SPF records and ensure you have reverse DNS records as well if you don't already.
