The relevance is just that you don't need those extra-cost services to
get a domain name. When you get a domain name, and set up your MX,
reverse DNS, and other records properly, other mail servers recognize
your mail server as being part of a legitimate domain instead of just
an anonymous user of an ISP's IP address pool.
