Every month?  I use ddclient to check the router's external IP every 6
minutes. If it changes, I update DYNDNS.  (I have a "custom zone" so
DYNDNS handles the DNS for sterndata.com.)  Before I switched to Google
for my domain mail, I used to run a mail server here -- before Comcast
blocked incoming and outgong traffic on port 25.  FYI, DYNDNS offers a
service called "mail-hop" that will act as your MX server, taking mail
on port 25 and sending it to your internal server on whatever port you
specify.
