I'm considering just going with Godaddy with their 5 email addresses for $19.99

But I'd like to know if there are any better packages and reliable sites that give you a good email package for your domain name? I can't find any that are reasonable.

One thing I can recommend is using gmail.com.

I have some domain names all redirected to my single gmail.com account, fast and easy, and best of all it is FREE. All you need is to buy a domain name to www.needname.com enom technology partner or godaddy or dotster and use the redirect feature.

Let me know how can I help you.

Well, can you clarify that for me please? I have a gmail account now. But how would I go about with the email thing? Because I want my own @instertdomainhere.com, email address'

For instance, I need a email address for support@"dnforum".com (replace dnforum, of course). How does gmail and the redirect feature work for that situation?
 
No problem.

Here's the step.
First you have to configure your domain name, for this example let us use hardworking.com domain. I will configure my support [at] hardworking.com to redirect all mails to my gmail.

- Login to your domain management console.
- Manage hardworking.com domain name, go to email setting where you can forward email address.
- Email Forwarding (forwards to an actual POP3 or webmail account)
- Forward support [at] hardworking.com to my email address at gmail.com
- Save changes.

Now login to gmail.com
- Go to Setting, click on Accounts, then click on Add another email address
- You have the option to make this email address as your default to reply.

You need to authenticate this ofcourse.

Viola ... Send email and test it.

You don't have to worry managing your own mail server or paying any cent. Built in chat, spam tool, unlimted email. My favorite, I can read my mail using my phone, as fast as reading in blackberry ....

Ofcourse you will see google ads, who cares about that ad anyway. We do make money out it in some ways.

Good luck,

You're right. Not like Google is a competitor for me or anything. Thanks for the help, I'm gonna start trying to work with that method now.
 
Hey, guys

I wonder is there anywhere providing me another kind of service?
I have a domain. Where could I find the email forwarding server?

e.g. I have example.com, I use that forwarding server to forward all mails to example.com to my own mail address, like [email protected] (My domain management console does not allow email forwarding)


I mean free service if any.

cheers
