I've been running my mail server on a dynamic IP for over a year now
without problems.  I have my domain, DNS service and backup MX through
no-ip.com for a pretty reasonable price.  It's cheap enough that I don't
even remember how much it is, I just renew each year when it expires.  I
would guess about $75 a year or so.
