Is your ISP doing NAT for you or is the obsd firewall the demarc?

Just forward ports 80, 25, and probably 110 to the internal address of the server and 
you should be OK.

As long as the nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf are pointing at the
right nameservers, you should be OK.

If you do have a local net, are the web and email services for the
local network, or for the internet?

Do you have your own local network with IPs 10.0.0.*, or is your
ISP giving your boxes those addresses?

If your ISP is assingining you IP addreses AND doing your DNS, then
it's all their responsibility, and you just need /etc/resolv.conf
to point to their nameservers.
