Definitely do not host mail on a residential ISP - even if you have a fixed IP address you might find that big providers will simply reject all mail from the whole block, regardless of how well you run your server.
I use a VPS, but I'm also hosting websites etc. so there is minimal extra cost in running mail as well.
