This is how I cope with dynamic dialup.(On my Debian system)

I use rewrite rules to change the host from my local fake name to my
providers domain name. I also use sed in my ip-up scripts to change the
primary_hostname value in my exim.conf to that of the fqdn of the
dynamic ip I was assigned. I don't know if this is the 'correct'
solution but it seems to work for me.(look at the headers of this
message)
