This is just a customer to customer help forum, everyone here, including myself, are just customers.

The only BT Employees are the forum moderators.

Please edit out any email addresses, as they are not permitted on this public forum.

You will also attract a lot of spam.

I advise not running a mail server on a dynamic IP address and on a residential broadband connection as it as you have seen will be blocked by email servers.

If you must run your own email server you need to move to a proper cloud provider or a virtual server in a data center with a static IP address.

See my other response to someone else who tried this and got the same: https://community.bt.com/t5/Email/Policy-Blocklist-PBL/m-p/2225684/highlight/true#M100581

All residential based dynamic IP address are on a Blocklist from sending unauthenticated emails.
