    I use Godaddy hosted email for an extra $30 yearly.
    I get some complaints from Sprint and CapitalOne to re-verify my email.
    Similarly I had some subscribed email threads that would warn about issues sending emails to me.
    There are lots of good things about it and it keeps getting new enhancements.

    I see email was included in various ways on Powweb (Like SquirrelMail)
    I never tried their mail offerings.

    I plan to check out HG more thoroughly.

    I know I signed for much less on Godaddy, but they bump your abilities as they become available and I've been there a while.

    Everybody is getting more slick with tools and such.
    HG looks like they have the lion's share in that category.

    Regardless who you use for your webhosting (I recommend HostGator, btw - been with half a dozen hosts and this is the first I'm happy with), I'd recommend Google for your mail hosting. Great uptime, reliability, IMAP...and all FREE

    But you can't use your own domain name, right ?
    Thats the whole idea of email to me and my customers, make it professional.

    I see now ...

    • Standard Edition includes all of the communication and collaboration applications, support for an unlimited number of user accounts each with 2 gigabytes of email storage, and it's free. If you don't already have an internet domain (like example.com), choose Standard Edition and we'll help you purchase one for $10.

    • Premier Edition includes all the benefits of Standard Edition, plus an uptime guarantee for email service, 25 gigabytes of email storage per user, integration APIs and phone support for critical issues. Premier Edition is $50 per user per year, but for a limited time you can try Premier Edition for free for 30 days.

    Added emphasis -- looks like free is plenty
    Can never figure out how the can afford this.
    They don't hit you with adds or adds on a signature ... then that is amazing.
