Joe, I really don't think that the dynamic IP matters all that much really. I ran a Postfix server off of a dynamic IP for quite a little bit before switching over to static. Most mail servers don't block at that level. Now, they do block on reverse DNS with failure to obtain an MX record for the claimed domain. Once I had a domain name with a DNS that had an MX record, I had very few problems originating mail. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer
