(If we are talking about an approach like > dynablock's.) It is a good thing. What kind of mail comes from dynamic IPs?

I agree to that. Not everyone should use a private mailserver. Hobbyists and Freaks should not run such service, it's a job for professionals, and those have a static ip. I'm really tired of writing a lot in mailinglists an get lots of "You mail to cool_kid@local could not be delivered..." There's nothing wrong with fetching mail - immediately after every dial in - every 10 minutes when being online - every 3 hours no matter if already online Works fine here. > Which may or may not be reliable.
