That's a good point.
A while ago my home broadband went down, and once it looked like it wasn't 
going to be fixed quickly I changed my MX record to point to a host I run at 
work (with a fixed IP), dialled up via my mobile, and used SSH to tunnel port 
25 on the remote machine back to my home server.
As a temporary measure it worked remarkably well.

IIRC I just settled for not being able to send mail for a day or two, but in 
principle there's no reason you couldn't build an outbound tunnel as well for 
the mail server to send out through.
