They don't with the "business" service, not that it's worth anything
since many servers will reject mail originating from stmp servers on the
Rogers domain anyway. You shouldn't be rejecting Rogers on this basis.
Though TekSavvy will give you a static IP, I have no idea if they will
do reverse DNS for your domain. Without a reverse DNS, your mail will be
rejected by some servers, most of which you can't ignore. You can always
relay through your ISP's smtp server, though Rogers requires that you
"register" each of your email addresses with Yahoo before allowing that
(the better to spam you).
