If you turn your home computer into a mail server and open up port 25 
on your router, you can send mail from anywhere. As I've described it, 
this is dangerous, unless you set up safeguards keeping others from 
spamming through your open relay. The easiest safeguard is to make it 
password protected. Another method is to tunnel it all through SSH.

Either one of these is more complicated than I want to describe here. I 
use the SSH method.
