  I have more than one problem at the moment.
  I rarely use the standard email address provided by my ISP.
  My domain is registered through my ISP, and at present the MX record only 
points to the smarthost / mailserver provided by my ISP, with my local 
mailserver running fetchmail. Some important outgoing emails are being 
rejected as "relay not permitted" by the destination (but I have no control 
over that), while incoming emails are not being properly filtered, so I want 
to set up my own mailgate and set my fixed IP address as primary MX, sending 
by direct SMTP(S). Not having my own fixed IP address listed as MX causes 
problems if I send by direct SMTP(S).
  I would also like to make my entire system IPv6-ready, as I suspect that we 
will all be using IPv6 very soon. I have been running my own firewall, local 
DNS, Mail, and Web servers for a long time, and already have running main and 
standby IPCop boxes, plus a box that is to have a shorewall system as soon as 
I can complete and test the configuration.
