I connect via a 28.8K modem and don't have a static IP address. My
local network uses the "sill" domain, e.g., sparge.sill, which is my
mailhub. I use the free dynamic DNS service at http://www.dyndns.org
to assign the FQDN sill.dyndns.org to my dynamic IP address. Outgoing
mail comes from either sill.dyndns.org or sill.org, never from a
*.sill domain.
OK, thanks; I doubted that would work when I set up qmail, so I never
tried it.
The dyndns.org service has been very reliable for me, but if you want
to pay for the service, there are commercial providers like dyndns.com
(which I've never tried and can't vouch for).

Thanks for the info (and also to S. P. Hoeke, who replied privately),
but I've already signed up for rgrjr.com from Hiway Technologies
(http://www.hiway.com/), based on a recommendation from a friend. I
still haven't figured out how to get it to forward mail to me in a way
that doesn't lose the envelope address, though, so I answered based on
my current working-but-suboptimal configuration.
