This is something that interests me, because I did get ahold of my own
domain, but often if I try to send mail from that domain it gets
bounced, I assume because the bouncer links my domain with a block of
IPs that belong to "consumer" ISP peeps like me, and are therefore
suspect or not to be trusted somehow. I would very much like to ditch my
ISP's mail service and run my own, but I never know when I'm going to
get bounced...
