Go ahead folks. Try it yourselves. Install Server Win2K3 and then install the Mail services that come with it. NOT Exchange.
Try to tell your mail client that the server name is server.yourcompany.com instead of server

Just curious, in my infinite quest to understand DNS, wouldn't you need to make your ISP change your RDNS to yourcompany.com or whatever to access mail servers from outside the network? Not a problem for T1 users or business-grade DSL, but those with cable and some DSL connections (which I've seen many small offices run on) shits a brick.
It's MX record, to be anally accurate. And you don't really need a static IP, but it helps.Originally posted by axdx
You need to register a domain name with ICANN (via a rigistrar), then root DNS servers will be updated with your domain name and DNS servers responsible for it. Then create an SMTP record. ISP hasn't got anything to do with this. You will need a permanent public IP address of course...
I don't think we understand enough about your setup to really help.Try to tell your mail client that the server name is server.yourcompany.com instead of server

As for dyndns and dynamic IPs - it just doesn't seem like a reliable solution for a mail server...
You're missing what I was saying. I was under the impression MX records need your FQDN to match that of your reverse DNS name. Or something.Originally posted by axdx
