For an intranet, any of 10/8, 172.16/12 or 192.168/16 is standard. You
need NAT or some other gateway to communicate with the Internet at
large.
>Anyway, my problem comes up with trying to get SMTP to work,
You can't use an RFC 1918 address for that purpose. Your DSL provider
has assigned you one or more IP addresses; you need to use them for
Internet access.
>but my home network doesn't have a name
Ask your provider whether they offer dynamic DNS.
