How is it? I am considering using it with one of my site address and was wondering about their quality. Any catches (maximum email limit), can it work with eMail clients on a comp, how is Anti-SPAM, etc.

Thank you! :)

Nope but I know someone who uses NameCheap's free e-mail forwarding.

It's not a true e-mail solution since it's just a forwarder (to your local ISP account) but it's free and works.

Why not get web hosting which comes with cPanel, your own mail servers and SPAM Assasin for $10/yr?

What cheap webhost do you recommend with mail servers? I don't need much bandwidth just unlimited email accounts...

Yup - signed up with it maybe a month ago. Got a domain for it, registered the domain for 10 years right away, and their 5 account e-mail hosting option ($20 a year). Their SPAM filter is not too good though. Every single e-mail coming in was marked as SPAM, except for a few things that actually were ads. They made it through just fine. The legitimate mails got [SPAM] stuck in their titles, even on the lowest strength setting. I had to disable it completely. Computers just aren't smart enough to compete with the a$$hole spammers, without junking legitemate messages
But overall, it does its job.

Unlimited e-mail for cheap?

The cheapest I know would be $5/mo for a resellers account, 1GB/5GB you can host multiple domains (and charge people whatever you want) plus unlimited e-mail, with SPAM filtering, cPanel, etc.
