12 If you have a static IP, you can also buy a domain name (I'm personaly glad
13 with gandi.net and wouldn't change for anything else).
14 Then you can host your domain at a DNS provider (xname.org is free and really
15 easy to use). All you need to do is to declare an A record with a name
16 pointing to your IP address, then add an MX for your domain pointing on the
17 name, ie.:
18
19 mail.mydomain.tld. IN A 11.22.33.44
20 mydomain.tld. IN MX 5 mail.mydomain.tld.
21
22 There are tons of docs out there on how to set up a domain.
