Hi,

We could help you with that. 

You want to check if your yelloline is giving your a public IP, though. I 
think they are in the 192.168.x.x range (or 10.x.x.x) both of which are not 
publicaly routable. (McTim, correct the details, if i am wrong ;-)

What might be possible is to have the mail delivered to us, and then pull them 
off off our server. 

If you manage to get this setup running (using e-box?), you could consider 
showing everyone how you did it on the Barcamp!
