Post Domain e-mail addresses

Does anyone know where I can get a domain e-mail address, for example [email protected]? Is it possible to get such an e-mail address free? If not, who is the cheapest provider?

Unfortunately the domain 'wentworth.com' is already gone.

However for a free domain name with same email go to www.freenetname.com.

Once you have registered your domain, your email address becomes the same.

Go try it..... & let me know

I visited www.freenetname.com but annoyingly it seems it's not yet fully operational. Perhaps this answers why I was unable to register a domain name. Am I doing something wrong - is one able to register a domain name now?

Cool

Freenetname has ceased taking free domain name registrations for the time being so as not to degrade the service to existing users. They don't want to go down the same road as breathemail.net

When they'll start again hasn't been revealed on their web site.

Cheers.

PS - it's freenetname.co.uk NOT .com

I guess you may know already but demon and one or two other UK ISP's have e mail addresses which allow you to nominate a domain albeit follwed by demon.co.uk-see my profile for an example (the domain "roineabhal" is after a Hebridean mountain)

Bravecatcher, www.freenetname.com is a seperate, unrelated firm, which is not connected in any way to the now ceased .co.uk business of the same name.

Cool

Masterplanet - agreed. Tried to log on to the .com, but the servers must have been down. That's why I felt posters maybe meant .co.uk.

Thanks for clearing it up.

Cheers.
