Re: Fw: OT : New domain provider need - with wildcard email forwarding

["Pete Shew" <pslists@xxxxxxxxx>]

I find Google mail's spam filters are very good. I redirect my domain
mail
to a gmail account and fetch it with POP3 from there  - except the last few
days when my XP desktop is down and I am using gmail via the web from my
Ubuntu server :-(

I am also in the habit of giving out my gmail address instead of my own
domain address to companies and mail lists like this one, so I can bin it
and change to a new one without changing my domain address.
