I've had very good experiences with ZoneEdit (http://
www.zoneedit.com/). They give you up to 5 domains at no charge with
a reasonable array of services, their web interface is simple and
straightforward, and I haven't been unable to do something DNS-
related that I wanted to do. Their DDNS update mechanism can be
implemented with a one-line invocation of wget, suitable for running
via cron; no special client is necessary.
I would also recommend looking into Rollernet (http://rollernet.us/)
for secondary DNS and secondary MX service. They also provide a
reasonable range of service at no charge (though, as with ZoneEdit,
you need to pay for some of the advanced functionality). It's a
great relief to know that if I have to take my mail server down for
maintenance I won't miss any mail.
Finally, if you want to run your own server, I recommend the Qmail
Toaster (http://www.qmailtoaster.com/). It's a turnkey solution that
runs perfectly on CentOS and provides far more capabilities than the
stock packages do.
