I'm running Windows Small Business Server 2003 at home. I have Exchange 2003 setup so that it'll send email out by DNS. But what all do I have to do have my SBS2003 receive email? The only way I can currently receive email on it, if I setup the pop3 connector to download whatever email that get sent to my comcast account. Like every 15mins it'll check that. But anyways, what do I have to go, so that I can have my own email account to send/receive email with?

I"m just doing this, so I can learn more about it, and eventually when I get bump up to one of smart service engineer positions( i'm currently just a PC Helper), I can use this knowledge to setup email on a SBS2003 server.
 
For inbound email you need a registered domain name and you need a MX record on the DNS server for that domain to point to your server. In addition you'll need to configure exchange/your accounts to have email addresses under the domain.
 
Also make sure that your ISP does not block some of the ports that are needed for outbound mail.
