Being limited to dynamic IP does not make you, or your server, a 'bad person'. It DOES make it very difficult for the rest of the world to for-sure separate your server from millions of infected PC's that *are* bad. So - no emotion involved, but we could be blocking you on several counts: - missing PTR record - 'known' dynamic IP - any of several public RBL's, dynamic IP or otherwise. - part of a /24 block on your entire upstream. - mere use of DynDNS (who may not have planned it so, but are of a class of services that have been abused by spammers). Best thing for the short-term is to find a sympathetic relay host. A 'real' one - not a dynDNS kludge.
