My mail server's IP will be dynamically allocated, which will cause me to lose some email when my machine reboots for one reason or another. I heard about a service once that will quickly and easily redirect any mail to an IP address; you give this service's name servers as your domain's servers, and then, if your IP address changes, you just have to login to this service and give the new IP address, and this service will supply the new IP address to any inquisitors with no lag or propagation time. I know this sounds a little weird, but has anyone heard of such a service?
I think you could hookup a DNS server to DHCP assignments... you might not have that level of control over your setup, but in theory you could by dynamically updating DNS this way.
Conversely though, it might make more sense to have a static IP address mail server receive it, and then you just connect using the fetchmail service to retrieve them.
