Yeah, I was going to say that qwest not providing smtp to residential customers sounded extremely odd. I've been on static IP with them since the beginning, so I can't definitely say they're wrong, but from what I saw when browsing their site, it sure looked like they provide smtp and pop3 to their customers, residential, or not. Besides, I've never heard of a residential ISP before that didn't provide full e-mail to their customers. My opinion is that the tech just told you that because they could use the extra money from you (setup fee, and monthly charges), but then what do I know. Anyway, if you're going to run a server on your connection, and you have no problem paying a bit extra for the static Ip, then keeping it is probably the way to go.
