I've been using this for a few months now and it's been great. The cool thing is that they allow you to solve the problem of having domain emails pointing to your personal emails so for example blahblah@joeblau.com -> josephblaus@gmail.com. The only challenge with this is that I use Cloudflare as my CDN and Google's email redirects work if you use Google's nameservers.

I didn't realise this was a problem - I've never used a domain provider that doesn't let you do this. I currently use Namecheap, which certainly do.
- joeblau 12y agoAh I've been using iwantmyname as my domain provider and they didn't do this. Your domain provider clearly offers more features.
- wbillingsley 12y agoThe painful thing I've found with this is that it leaves myname@gmail.com as a valid email address. So there I am signing up for other services with myname@mydomain.com and meanwhile some typo-ridden fool in the US keeps signing up myname@gmail.com instead of theirname@gmail.com and I end up receiving their hotel receipts, iTunes receipts, etc. Very few of those services have a good way of dealing with "No, that wasn't their email address they signed up with, it was an alias of mine". And while for some of these, I could presumably click the "forgot password" link and go into their account, I'm not sure that would be legitimate and wouldn't know what their correct email was to change it.
