I have 3 servers and 3 IP's.

Server 1 - Static IP - 111.111.111.111
Server 2 - Static IP - 222.222.222.222
Server 3 - Dynamic IP - 333.333.333.333

Now Server 3 is always assigned the IP 333.333.333.333 because it's the only one left, the two others are, as shown above, static to the two other servers.

Is there any reason to assign Server 3 a static IP in regards of "credibility" to the "outside world" (Such as in terms of SMTP / Server credibility) despite the server always have and will be identified by the same IP?

Are there other reasons to give Server 3 a "static IP"?

This is not about SPF / DKIM / Reverse DNS, I'm very well aware of these things and they have been configured. - The question is not about getting unblocked.

Usually many RBL's will block dynamic ranges from ISP'S, no matter if actually this dynamic range is being used as static addressing.

As an exmaple, you may look at PBL from Spamhaus: https://www.spamhaus.org/faq/section/Spamhaus%20PBL#183

The PBL is simply a list of all of the world's dynamic IP space, i.e: IP ranges normally assigned to ISP broadband customers (DSL, DHCP, PPP, cable, dialup)
