You'd ask your DNS hosting provider (Clara.net) to add the record. Or, if they 
provide a "control panel" for you to maintain the DNS data yourself, you'd add 
it using that (many DNS control panel applications don't support TXT records 
though).

I'd advise you not to run your own company's mail server until you've had some 
experience running one for a less critical domain (say, a personal one). It 
won't cost you anything but your time and effort to run your own server on a 
DSL line with a static IP (I wouldn't bother trying if you're on a dynamic 
IP). That's how I run my own mail server (and DNS for that matter).
