I've read through some forums/posts/tutorials, but am stuck as far as what settings I need to input into GoDaddy.
I unfortunately only have a Dynamic IP from my ISP. I've setup DDNS through my router (ie companyname.ddns.com) and my domain is companyname.com. What records do I need to input into GoDaddy for me to be able to send/receive email? I know this is pretty vague, but if you need any other info, please let me know.

if you need to update dns for your ip for companyname.com. then you need to configure your router or SME which can do that using smeserver-ddclient to have companyname.com updated.

you need to see what is the procedure on the godaddy side. I do not use theirs services and hear only bad experiences from them. 
from you will then need to configure
