I setup ddclient to automatically update my IP - it checks it every five minutes.
It appears that my ISP changes my IP for me almost daily (once per day). I don't know why it does that - my computer is always online. But, it gets changed every night around 1 am.
As to the second question. I don't really know how it's set up. MTA = mail transfer agent? I thought that's what Postfix was? The server is not setup as a domain, e. g. the hostname is not the domain name.
I have not setup a dns server, would that help? If so, I can try it. I didn't know if I needed to set that up as well.

DESCRIPTION
Dovecot is an open source IMAP and POP3 server for Linux/UNIX-like systems, written with security primarily in mind. Dovecot is an excel-
lent choice for both small and large installations. It's fast, simple to set up, requires no special administration and it uses very lit-
tle memory.

Start dovecot with an alternative configuration.

COMMANDS

will keep alive after a dovecot stop.
By default all active sessions will be shut down.
