@Aaron-Studer well...that's differnet. I like roundcube which is one of the packages that cPanel offers.

@technobabble Agreed, but I am not paying for that just for my personal domain, not cost effective.
Rackspace is just $2/user/month full price. Hard to justify anything else when that is enterprise and fully supported.

Zoho has free mail for personal and business domains. I think up-to 5 or 10 accounts. That is what I'm using for my personal domains. They also have a really nice web interface which makes it even better.

I used to use it, It has some funky issues with folder syncing in the web interface vs imap or activesnyc. it doesn't always match.

If you are looking to learn about email hosting, I'm with SAM... Zimbra has been the big open source email player for a long time. Free and very useful.

What about this? Any downsides?

Check out Zoho. It's completely free and you can use your domain name for email

I completely understand this, I see few solutions for this, Gmail or (much less desirable) use the email your ISP provides...
All that said, I do understand learning for learning sake.

I have never had an issue with Zoho

So then let me pose a new question, how do I setup email forwarding so that any email sent to *@domain.com is forwarded to my gmail?
You could probably go with Postfix.
This is an older article, but is it what you are trying to do? http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-bsd-postfix-forward-email-to-another-account/

I agree, for a pure SMTP Relay, Postfix is the best option. A Dev 1 will handle that just fine.

Doesn't GMail just let you have domain aliases?

Only if you pay for Google Apps. They used to have a free tier along with Outlook/Hotmail. But the only free custom domain one now (that I know of) is Zoho.
