I have DNS named, *dynamic*, routable IP -- thanks to the good folks at dyndns.org. The only bad thing is that the reverse DNS isn't consistent. I'm still not entirely comfortable getting e-mail sent directly to me, which is why I POP most of it. > Branden: You might consider getting a static. That would be nice. Unfortunately, the choices at swbell (DSL) are either one dynamic IP ($40/month), or 5 (!) static IPs, at $80/month + $100 installation + $100 to set up the DNS (no, not register a domain, *just* to configure the DNS). (And yes, they want the $100 installation even though I already have everything set up and all they would have to do is allocate the IP addresses.)
