No intrusion. This is an open discussion.

One is a service that the Registry supplies. You do not have to be in a
business relationship with any particular hosting company or reseller.

The other is a business relationship between your reseller or hosting
company and you.

Is there a big difference? No, but I would like to know that if I change
domain registration companies or hosting companies that my email
forwarding will continue to work. If this is a service of my hosting or
registration company, I now have to set this up with another company
should I move my domain registration or hosting.

If the customer has "bought into" email for life forwarding services
from the registry - as advertised on the Registry website - it is only
honest business practices to tell him if you are selling him something
else.

I would have thought this concept was obvious - apparently not.
