- If you're want to setup a forward like you@yourdomain.com TO you@yahoo.com these plans work well.
- Godaddy's email can also be checked through a website portal, or you can set up POP email access in Outlook or your cell phone
- G Suite / Google apps - Gmail with your custom domain - you@yourdomain.com
- Use google's Gmail website, and the Gmail apps on your mobile devices. Also get google drive, google calendar etc
- Purchase directly through google - setup time ~30 minutes
- Purchase through us - Setup time ~1 minute - Pick your email address and we'll handle all the setup. This works well if you're looking for 1 - 2 email addresses. If you want email addresses for your whole team, I recommend buying directly from google.

If you are managing your own DNS
If you are managing your own DNS, you can either change your Nameservers as described here or you'll need to setup your own email. Using google apps is a great option, but requires following a number of steps to verify your domain. Some registrars, like godaddy, offer email services, but it is pretty basic, and not as user friendly as google apps.
