Selected quotes from AlamedaNet's Terms of Service...
I'll check to see if these are the same terms for the small
business static-ip version, but you have a good point.

Would all those who wish to run an MTA on 'broadband', static IP or
otherwise, kindly read their own ToS first?

Thank you for the pointers. I am suitably chastised.
'Chastised' was not the intent. 'Made aware' was.
Glad to have gotten around the 'pre-conceived notion' barrier.
Better to have a 'heads up' from a fellow-traveler than a disconnect
and/or legalese threats from
an upstream that may not be easily replaceable. That can be seriously
inconvenient.
Most of us depend on those broadband tail-circuits. Too few of use read
the ToS. ;-)
My mail servers, BTW, sit in a leased rack in a proper data center.
'Traceroute' if you wish.
I don't run any 'service' from the workstation (in Hong Kong last week,
Bangkok this week, and the USA next week)
It pays to keep stuff in/on its proper 'box'.
HTH,
Bill
