You will not be able to run a mail server from a dynamic ip address. Most of them are blacklisted, blocked, and will not work. Assuming you have a static ip address, and want to run a full service mail server , i'd suggest taking a look at mercury mail server | |||

I used to use Podcast Server. and as mentioned by Journeyman Geek, there shall be issues. Any mails you send from a dynamic IP address end up in SPAM these days. It is okay to test, but not for production. You can however, set an SPF Record authorizing your IP to send mails on behalf of your domain. However, if your IP changes in the mean time, your mails may end up in the spam box for the next 24 hours. You might be able to avoid this by setting up your DNS record with very short TTL. In the US, with my internet always on, I have not have my IP address change in months, although I have a dynamic IP address and the address I have is not guaranteed to remain fixed. | |||
