Subject: [OT] sendmail on dynamic IP
Date: Wednesday, January 2, 2008 - 6:22 am

I got a test box at home I'm trying to setup sendmail in. I bought a

domain and host a website on that box. I get dynamic IP from my ISP

which gets updated via DynDNS for the website. I added the MX for my

domain with Google and it's been working fine (I can send receive

mail). But I want to setup sendmail & friends (clamav, mimedefang,

spamd etc.)  to get familiar with them.


I understand that having a dynamic IP and not having a reverse DNS

working to mail.domain.com would put me in the block list pretty soon.

I am not considering hosting outside.


Could sendmail's smarthost be the best option in this scenario? If

yes, should I point it to Google or my ISP? Is there any other option?


Thanks.
