I have a sever setup to accept email just fine and dandy for a dyndns.org support host, and I do not pay anything for it. I get mail to my system woa.homeip.net just fine without paying. The paid for services you speak of are for people who want to customize their own dyndns settings. You can send me an email to crypto...@woa.homeip.net and I will receive it, and I can send out. I would suggest you get a dyndns.org account, and do some research on it. I have been using dyndns.org since about 2001 when I first my DSL Connection.
