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).
