You can try with easily.co.uk. I have a couple of domains registered with them and support was great...

Haven't contacted them recently though.

Mail forwarding and web forwarding is free.

You can forward up to 20 e-mail addresses to different mailboxes and specify one for default (when address doesn't match any of those 20).

I used 123-reg to register the domain and hold the tag, I then
pointed at my own DNS, but as you point out, that disables their
email forwarding. It is a real pain. I am even thinking of switching
back to the 123-reg DNS and using web forwarding, but I really hate
that option.

I have to say that I am a little wary of using another DNS as mine is
already there.. If my DNS fails then at least I have the possibility
of fixing it and anyway, as it is the same box as my web server, if
the box fails then it really doesn't matter if the DNS is still
working. It is a lot simpler if I handle everything on the one box
(these are not very high volume sites).
