You need to setup google apps for your domain then that doesn't happen."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested." -

Erm, no one is hosting my domain, that's why I'm here asking for suggestions! I just bought the domain only a little while ago from 123reg.Originally posted by b0redom View PostJust have whoever is hosting your domain forward mail on to your.address@gmail.comComment

You want google apps for your domain, the standard edition (free)
http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/group/index.html
I allows you to use google mail as the proper destination for your domain, also if you have a few bods using that domain name, you can share calenders, docs, contacts etc
Have a few clients using it and v-happy with it.Politicians are wonderfull people, as long as they stay away from things they don't understand, like working for a living!Comment

They will be holding your cname entries (I think that's what they are called) and forwarding your email - just login in to their admin area and change the forwarding to gmail.Originally posted by Spoiler View PostErm, no one is hosting my domain, that's why I'm here asking for suggestions!

Okay, gmail looks good. One last question - will I be able to create separate accounts for mydomain.co.uk so several people can access there own mail for the domain:
me@mydomain.co.uk
wife@mydomain.co.uk
dog@mydomain.co.uk
Does google apps provide this?
Thanks.Comment
