I'm at the point now where I have downloaded (nearly at random) an email server.

I have a test No-IP account which allows me to set my MX records.

I will soon install my mailserver.

But I'm confused as to what I set in my MX Records boxes within No-IP - obviously I want any email sent to the domain forwarded to my mailserver, which will then split it up into mailboxes or chuck the unknown ones into a default mailbox.

What's next?
Please help! I'm getting closer and closer :-)

You mean the free account?

Cool. What server have you decided to go with?

Simply set it up to goto JoGiles.no-ip.com
Then set your router to forward traffic on port 25 to the (Static) IP address of your Win2k server box :-)


Chill.
