Err, Mike hate to break this to you, but I do have travel and I do operate my own MTA over the dialup. It's not as uncommon as you think.

Vernon,

Do dialup or traveling users run their own MTA's over the dialup line?

Nope--they have remote, permanent servers, which they access via POP or
IMAP.  Somewhere, somehow, they rely on machines that are listening
24/7.  I have such a machine myself.  Call it "BBS-style" if you like,
but it's a present-day fact.
