If you were only using one ISP, I would sugest setting up sendmail to
use the ISP's mail server as a smart relay. But then you would run into
a problem when you are connected to the ISP mail works with now, unless
they will allow you to relay mail throug them from outside their network
using some for of authoration. (pop before smtp, smtp auth, etc...)
