You can get SMTP with a dynamic IP address, by using the ODMR (On Demand Mail 
Relay) variant. I retrieve mail for a few domains using fetchmail from 
Gradwell.com, whom I can recommend as DNS hosts.
Actually, I have a static IP but there are also some other benefits for me 
such as not needing port 25 open, and (with Gradwell's service) being able to 
access the spool via webmail. Functionally, it's quite like POP3 but retains 
the envelope information.
