You're confusing outgoing and incoming SMTP.  Sending email from
a dynamic IP is indeed a losing proposition because of blacklist
spam filtering.  I.e. outgoing port 25 is of no use and might as well
be blocked.  OTOH sending email to a dynamic IP works perfectly fine.
I.e. running a daemon on port 25 to receive incoming email can
be very useful.
