And that's exactly what I did.
Now the only thing I will need to do when the domain transfer occurs is to go
in to my domain management at GoDaddy and set up the domain email addresses and
the forwarding to my ISP.
Again, this is certainly not rocket science, but the service providers leave a
I'm hosting both domains and web sites, so I have mail services as a part of my
hosting package. That includes forwarding as well.
Thanks for the tool info. Quite handy!
