No, I guess they don't point the whole domain at your IP, but considering the way that DNS works, that's not hard to fix. Just point the nameserver IP at your IP, run bind, and put in a couple lines like this: *.mydomain.com. IN A w.x.y.z mydomain.com. IN MX 10 w.x.y.z I don't see why not having this particular feature makes GoDaddy evil. I've been using them for over 3 years now, and I like the low cost, and the fact that it's easy to run your own NS at home. It seems evil to me not to be able to run my own server.
