Excellent advice. A single Newsguy account will provide all the addresses you need. You can have your domain registrar redirect mail to your Newsguy account so you can still use your domain name. Since you would be paying them (about $5/month) you would have an actual contract, unlike "free" services such as Gmail. -- John Hasler jhas...@newsguy.com Elmwood, WI USA
