Rackspace email & DNS

[keith smith]

I've heard that rumor elsewhere.  I was told $50/yr for all the email accounts per domain and they were 8gig mail boxes.

I have not found those.  I find a free Google apps with 10 accounts or the $5/mo or $50/yr  per account Google apps email accounts.  I don't need Google apps.  I just need email.

If you know of a better plan I, sure would like hearing about it.

Thanks!

Odd. I get 100 mail boxes for free from google. I know they dropped it
but I thought the drop was to 50.
