It's a social problem, not a technical one.  Many mail system admins 
refuse mail from servers on a dynamic IP because lots of spam zombies 
exist in those locations.  You know who to thank for that.

Our friends at DynDNS have some services to help:

But my cable modem isn't reliable enough for me to count on it for the 
business (only ~99.5%) so I got a root server at 1&1 for $50/mo and 
it's always up, even when Cogent and Level 3 are having a chicken 
fight.  At least I can get in over Verizon Wireless when the cable 
modem is down.  Did I mention IMAP is great?
