Ahhh... I didn't read the fine print. You do have to tell the dynamic DNS
service your new IP address everytime it changes. They don't figure it out
for you.

How do you want to set it up? Do you want people that send you email to send
directly to your mail server? If so, you need an SMTP server, not a POP3
server. POP3 is what a client uses to query the server that is storing their
mail.
