If you are contained within verizon's netblock there is nothing easy
that you can do. You have a couple options which may not be options in
your case as they usually cost money.

1) upgrade to a static ip (usually done by going to a business grade
account)
2) use a relay server that's on a static ip (most decent mail servers
that are setup today refuse mail from any ip address listed in a dynamic
ip address range)
3) have someone with a static ip address allow you to relay through
there server (with permission of course)

I will talk to you more tomorrow about this at the SFD event.
