I've been using Yahoo BB (with BB-Phone) for the last year or two (ADSL).  
The IP is dynamic in theory, but it hasn't changed yet.  The important
thing is that the IP is global.  I guess that's for the sake of the phone.
Anyway, it's worked fine for a mail server, except for sending to AU 
(ezweb).
