Hi I am going to setup a microsoft exchange server. What do I need from my ISP besides getting them to host my domain.

Thanks
Anthony

you will aos need the ISP go give you MXrecords

You're gonna need a static IP or use something like dynDNS, if it's a static IP you need to register a domain name, something like mail.company.com and then have them point the MX record for company.com to that domain name or the dynDNS domain name.

I would strongly suggest getting something with a static IP if you're gonna be hosting mail on it, much less hassle than dynDNS.

WebAfrica are now offering static IP addresses on their Business Uncapped ADSL, for a once-off fee of R1499.00.

That includes 5 static IP addresses and a Billion router.
