self mail hosting

[Efraim Flashner]

I've registered a domain and set up my raspberry pi to recieve and send
emails.  Everything seems to be working fine, except that emails that I
send to gmail get rejected by google.  I've been told that google
rejects email where the reverse-dns doesn't match the dns record, and
because I don't have a static IP address there's not much I can do.

Has anyone had success getting a static IP address without too much
hassle? Currently I'm getting my internet through netvision, but we
were planning on switching to 018 for their cheaper prices.

Getting a static IP address seems like it would be the easiest option,
followed by reconfiguring postfix to use a SMTP relay to send mail
through another server, but I'd need to make sure that the header isn't
changed (too much) if I do that.  Also I've found keeping my sanity
involves interacting with Israeli beaurocracy as little as possible, so
I'd rather not call netvision for a static IP since I'm planning on
leaving them anyway.

If anyone has any experience doing their own mail and want to share,
I'd love to hear about it.
