You close. I have a static IP and mail server that sends and a domain name.
How do get patrick@mylinuxserverdomainname.com to reach my IP. I can email
to my box via the private IP (patrick@1.2.3.4) I want to take the next step
and have it abl to accept public internet mail via a domain name. enic.cc
make this VERY easy with their URL forwarding. Then again, that's not DNS.

Patrick, I'm not sure I understand your question. I believe what you
want is a domain name provider to offer dynamic DNS. If you're not
sure what this is, look it up on a registration site. I use
http://www.easydns.com They're Canadian, but they do a good job,
offer https, and dynamic DNS amongst other things. There are
probably cheaper though--depends on what you want.

About the web site and email server, you'll need to have those port
forwarded on your firewall configuration. I believe some of the
better FW people can take it from here.
