[realprogrammers hosting] Gmail for your domain

[Paul Makepeace]

Last month Google released its latest mail product which is the
largely self-explanatory "Gmail for your domain". This in essence
gives you Gmail but @your-domain. In other words you can maintain your
existing email addresses but have the Gmail UI experience: 2GB of
storage *per user*, plus mail forwarding, POP access, and so on.
Google provide a management interface for all your own email.

The product's home page is,

(Technically this programme is still in beta but I'm not aware of
anyone being turned down for it.)

I switched over to Gmail for paulm.com and set up a few random
forwards for some other domains I had (realprogrammers.com et al) at
my server end and it's been working really well for the month or so.
Other folks I'm hosting have switched over too, and as domain host I
can take care of the only mildly complex part for you, updating the
DNS MX records.

The other advantage to this programme is that I actually now work for
Google and am one of the Gmail site engineers so there isn't (in
theory!) anything related I can't answer or even fix myself :-)

If you're interested take a look at the link and let me know if you'd
like me to update the DNS to enable it.
