A few choices...

- Don't use a relayhost, deliver mail directly. This requires you have a static IP address with proper FCrDNS entries, which will require cooperation from your ISP and may cost some extra, depending on your current service agreement.

- If you only have a handful of addresses, you can sign up for a free google apps account with your own domain name. That will allow you to relay through google. You are not required to use google as your MX; you can continue to use your own server. If you have too many for the free service, you might consider paying.

- Use some third-party relayhost service, such as dyndns. This will not be free, but shouldn't cost very much. If you have more than a couple dozen email addresses, this will be cheaper than a google apps account.

I finally went with dyndns. Low cost for the volume we have and easy to setup. But since the price is volume based I was thinking of splitting the outgoing trafficbetween my ISP and dym.com

I thought of using relayhost to my ISP by default and use fallback_relay when the ISP failed. However the documentation of fallback_relay mentions only that it kicks in when then main relay fails. In my case I want to use it when it bounces the mail for the wrong reason (reason why I went with dyn.com in the first place):

Would it work ?
