I now realize this isn't as helpful as it might be, since it's not aimed
toward the RaQ3i but rather toward DNS in general.

To do this on a RaQ you'd set up two A records, one for the domain alone
and one for the domain with the "www." in front of it.  Then an MX
record pointing "yourdomain.com" to "www.yourdomain.com".  Then two
CNAME records, one pointing pop.yourdomain.com to www.yourdomain.com (or
just to yourdomain.com) and another for ftp.yourdomain.com, pointing it
the same).

I hope this helps.
