Affordable & Reliable Email Hosting?

sarcast asks: "I am looking for an affordable email-only solution for basically forwarding any emails from a domain name (info@yourdomain.com) to someone's personal email account (me@myISP.com). The point being that the person can buy a domain name and then if they decide they want to change ISPs, it is just a simple matter of forwarding to another address. With the recent downturn of some ISPs, people that have had their email address with a certain provider for years, will probably lose them. There are plenty of people out there offering to host my email, but they package it with a website deal which is a waste if all I want is just an email package. Has anyone had good experiences with any company in particular?" This was last asked over a year ago, has there been any new developments on this front?

Talk to your friends

Try to find a friend with a home server, who would be willing to offer you an account. (s)he's probably going to be happy with practically no financial reward (perhaps a few beers). That way you're going to have absolute power over the domain (as long as you don't piss your friend off).
