You can easily send & receive using gmail, either with a gmail account or with google apps and your domain at home, though neither of these likely involve your own sendmail setup. If you want your own mailserver, you need port 25 to be allowed both ways and a static IP (more proper) or dynamic dns (improper hack) is also needed.
