    Just wondered if anyone knew where I could get my own pop3 email with email hosting. Im not interested in the web domain, just for the email. i.e [email protected].

    Free is great but if its cheap il consider it too, thanks.

    A lot of domain registrars offer e-mail plans very cheap.

    godaddy.com for example offers free basic e-mail (25MB total storage) with a domain.

    Their "deluxe plan" gives you five e-mail addresses and 1GB of storage for $20 a year. And their premium plan is 100 e-mail addresses and 2GB of total storage for $30/year.

    That's just an example though; many domain registrars offer similar deals.

    instead of paying 99 cents a month, you can use dreamhost.com, they have deals all the time where you get a domain and hosting for 10 bucks for two years.

    +1 for dreamhost. I use them for hosting my domains and e-mail and various side projects, and they are really great.
