I currently pay 7€ per month and everything basically just works. Had
this contract since 2001, some time in between the company (Puretec)
was bought by 1and1. I've never been a huge 1and1 fan, but it still
works fine, so I'm pretty happy regardless.

I don't even use 90% of what's included in the package, so basically I
could give you hosting and up to 492 eMail addresses (of the 500
addresses included ;) ) with your own domain for free if you want
that.

All the best, Marcel

Bill is a wonderful bloke... always willing to help, always chatty. He
always came over to me with a story about Ireland as he holidayed here many
times in the past.

Hopefully he makes a full recovery, an absolute gentleman.

Umm, what price do you pay for your coffee exactly, Marcel???


I don't drink coffee at all ;) But I checked that a hosting package
similar to mine costs 5GBP on 1and1, so I figured it's probably about
one Starbucks coffee or 2 regular ones ;)

Marcel

I currently pay GBP9.59 for the domain and email forwarding, and £21.60 for
the hosting per year. Personal email addresses from 123-reg with pop, imap
and webmail cost GP2.99+VAT *EACH*, with 5GB space (well, it says "from
£2.99".and here in rip-off Britain, "from" means you will usually be
charged  more than that, you hardly ever end up paying the price you see).

Every single step in this seems to involve paying for something extra just
to get a minimally working something to keep an unpaid time-consuming hobby
going, this is the point at which I have to make a decision whether to spend
to do things properly, or give up trying to do things properly. I'm more 
inclined towards the latter at the moment.

I don't quite get why you don't just click yourself your own hosting
provider including a domain and eMail service and be done with it.
This costs as much as two coffees per month but I've been using mine
for 15 years now and never looked back. Sounds like the free stuff is
not working out for you so well anyway.
