I've mentioned Usen recently (should be in the archives). I didn't reply 
at first because I have no idea whether they can/will do reverse DNS. I 
know mine only points to a hostname-ized version of the static IP. (Look 
up larabell.net and then reverse-DNS that.) However, I don't seem to have 
any trouble with email. Then again, I do most of my mailing logged into my 
web hosting provider at pair.com anyway. You could call them. You probably 
have to anyway to see if they cover the area into which you're moving. If 
I recall right, they also provide an outbound mail gateway you could flush 
everything through. I'm not using that, though.
