iis ftp : I need help on this one! Tough one! IIS Relay Question.

1. I have an E2003 server running on a Comcast Cable that's not giving me a
static IP with a Domain called (test.com).
2. A lot of sites will not accept emails from comcast IPs unless it's
relaying from the Comcast servers. ex. Yahoo
3. I have a connector on my E2003 set up pointing to my IIS5 (win2k) server
at work that ONLY ACCEPTS relays from my home IP and then it send it out. No
problems with anybody including Yahoo who will get the emails. I have to
manually go into IIS and tell it what my IP is.
4. I signed up with DNYDNS.ORG so now I have test.homeip.net always pointing
to my Comcast IP.

Problem. Is there a way to get my IIS5 to accept all relays from
test.homeip.net IP? This will keep me from having to change the IP all the
time. If I tell it to accept relays from a DOMAIN (test.homip.net) instead
of an IP in IIS, I get the message that this requires a reverse DNS lookup.
If you do a reverse DNS on (test.homip.net), you come up with
(pcp05104098pcs.mtromd01.md.comcast.net) and not test.homeip.net or my home
domain of test.com.

Can someone help me basically figure out how I can get the IIS to accept my
IPs without having to manually go in and change it all the time? I don't
know if I should post it here or on the Exchange forum so I'll post it on
both.

Thanks!

Phil
