I went through the same switch from a "business class" DSL with a static
IP and my own server to a residential "high-speed" U-Verse connection
with a dynamic IP.  I happily gave up my server and moved by solution
(Cyrus IMAP) to a Linode.  Prices are very reasonable, still less with
the combination of the connection and hosting fee than my "business
class" DSL was.  Performance has been great, uptime nearly perfect;  I'm
very happy.  Full control [you have your own VPS] with none of the
hardware / connectivity / power issues of an actual server.  I really
can't over-recommend Linode.
