FWIW, we charge $5/mo extra for a static IP. Some ISPs charge less, some
charge more, some give it away, some don't offer it. In Pittsburgh, I'm
sure you have an ample selection. If you can't afford it, you may, in
fact be SOL when it comes to sending out SMTP directly to some or all
places.
The Internet is not some big, free, public network that everyone has a
God-given right to have unfettered access to. It's a collection of
private networks that each network owner/admin makes rules for his little
corner of, at his/her own peril (peril in terms of technical and marketing
ramifications).
