> The blocks/blacklists on dynamic IP's are entirely appropriate in this
day and age. There is an industry accepted and promoted solution to your
problem and that is to use your ISP's mail server as an outgoing mail
relay. You can either use it via SMTP directly from your applications
(i.e. SM) or as a smarthost for the mail server you are running. Every
ISP I know of worth a grain of salt allows their customers to use the
ISP's mail servers to send mail. That's why they are there. If you do
that I'll be most if not all of your problems go away. If you are an
@home customer, they are almost certainly allowing you to relay SMTP
through them. If you're blocked because you're on a blacklist that they
subscribe to then it's your fault for not doing your research before
setting up your mail server.

That WOULD make sense.  This isn't a SM issue, but last year I was getting
DSL from Verizon and I tried using my work email address as my return
email address - and Verizons server wouldn't send out  my mail.  I finally
got through to someone there who said that their server simply would not
send email out for anyone not using a verizon.net email address and
reply-to address.  Silly policy.  M$-type business practices.  It lost
them a customer.
