please be very sure that
(1) you actually want to run mailing lists from a machine with a
dynamic ip address
(2) your dyndns provider handles MX records.

concerning (1), i think you really don't. most responsible mail
relays will drop your messages, since it comes from a dial-up ip
(think spam), so few users will be able to read your messages.
as to (2), afaik dyndns don't do that by default.
