handling mail services is a bit off topic here, you will get detailed information concerning mail and DNS on the respective forums, if you get everything set up you won't have to use an ip address anymore, please don't forget the open relay topic.
Have fun

Erich, thanks for your comments.
What I mean by "internal" or "local" vs. "external" is this. Up until this point, if I wanted to send an email message from home to Jennifer at work, I would send it to her email address with the ISP, for example "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", so it would go to the Cox SMTP server then to her Inbox. When I am at work and want to send a message to her, I just send it to "jenn@[192.168.1.210]" and it goes straight into her Inbox on the office IMAP server, without ever going outside the firewall.
I would like to be able to send messages to her in the same fashion from home, and therefore started thinking about poking a hole in the firewall for the SMTP protocol and port forwarding it to the office IMAP server.
Anyway, I think I'll give it a try and see what happens.
