In my country, the cable company sells fixed IP for about US$60/mon. and
it filters nothing,
that is: the port 25 is left open.

You only need so, to ask the one that holds your DNS, to put a  record
MX in the
definition

           MX    10    mx1.your.domain
and.....

A.B.C.D            A    mx1.your.domain.

so when someone pings mx1.your.domain  it answers A.B.C.D

after you must set up your sendmail
by creating a sendmail.mc .... in /etc/mail
