    I am behind a DSL provider and my IP address changes everytime my router
    loses connection......usually about once a week.
    (http://www.perfectnetusa.com) I use a Dynamic DNS provider.
    http://www.zoneedit.com/ it's a free service up to 5 domain names that
    keeps my IP address "LIVE" 24X7. I use a Linksys router configured to use
    NAT and "Port Forward" necessary ports to the server behind the router.....

    I run Postfix on my RH8.0 server and manage it with Webmin (*Webmin Access
    Behind DSL NAT router only....not live to the Internet*) Works
    Fantastically Well!!!

    Good Luck, and ask the folks on this list for help, because they know what
    they're talking about. I have gone to the list a few times myself while
    trying to get some things working, and when the list is
    un-characteristically not a help on an issue, the other place for you to
    live and learn and love is http://google.com/linux
