Receive mails directly to my PC
Is it possible to receive mails on my pc to mail addresses like this: myMail@myIP ? I mean I won't download mail from a remote POP server but receive it directly to my PC? Which indy component should I use?

I suppose you want a pop3 server. You need to have a MX record in the DNS.

Nope, he needs an SMTP server for directly receiving mail. POP is for pulling mail from another server.
