At the time, I checked into DynDNS which has a similar service.  I had a
server at work in our DMZ that I setup SMTP for relay from my mailserver at
home.  I had it setup with all the standard Internet mailserver
requirements for it to be deemed a "legitimate" mailserver.  It
worked fine, but I got tired of dealing with the spam.  Most would get
blocked, but it wasn't as good as Google.  A good anti-spam appliance is
very expensive and out of the question for home use.
