As I understand it, your immediate problem is in the DNS and *not*
in your box. The CNAME (or MX or whatever) record should be in the
global DNS. Otherwise how a remote computer find out that mail to
somebody@webmail.abc.com should be delivered to your computer?

Check with the DNS service you use for "abc.com".
