could you please tell me where to put following info as describe yours reply
"
For DNS, and MX record cannot be an IP address.
Therefore you will have to create a new host, of type A, that points to your static IP address.
The usual name is mail - therefore making mail.domain.com
Then in the MX record you would enter the full host name - mail.domain.com "

Thanks

That all depends on how your domain name registrar is configured.
I can only give you the generic information - you need to put those in to your domain name registrar or ask them how to do it.
