AGAIN, many decent hosts provide domain and e-mail forwarding for ADDITIONAL domains at no extra cost. Of course, you need to have at least 1 single paid account with them, but that's just for a few bucks a month, and you could have dozens of domains activated.

I'm not sure if it is part of the transfer deal or only for new deals, but wwd resellers might give you 100 email forwards per domain so its something to check out..

I used to use zonedit all the time. Never had a problem with their service.

if you find such a place, ask if they don't provide free hosting and free google ads as well ;)

Howdy :)
I am looking for just DNS management utilitys. I don't wish to use the DNS provided with GoDaddy. Zoneedit was unreliable as emails disappeared or I didn't recieve certain email from people...

Howdy,
Is Godaddy 100% reliable and won't lose ANY of my mail?
I don't know if I can trust it.
Last time I trusted Domains free email forwarding was when ENOM had there MAJOR shortage last year...I lost all faith in free email forwarding with hosts...
Cheers,
Burgerings

I haven't used godaddy the company itself, but thru wildwestdomains, and the mail forwarding is instant and never had a problem with it. I do have bad experience with other companies so I know what you mean, its really frustrating!

I use zoneedit and that domain receives mail from a high traffic Yahoo group and never lost one email yet in a year.
