For two small businesses I set up a debian lenny installation on their "home" dsl connection. The problem is that they have dynamic ip addresses and most mailservers will not accept incoming mail from a server on a dynamic ip address. The solution is rather simple. Set up postfix in a way that it will relay the outgoing email through the actual ISP. In this short howto I'll show you how to do that.
