As I understood it, the > fee was set up to cover the operator's time in taking care of all of this. As I read the documentation they sent me (email and paper), the MX forwarding is ONLY available to their subscribers. If you are a subscriber, there is no charge to register your domain. On the other hand you pay $35 per month. This is fine if you otherwise make use of their services, but incredibly steep if all you wanted was an MX forwarder! -- Terry Poot The McCall Pattern Company (uucp: ...!rutgers!ksuvax1!mccall!tp) 615 McCall Road (800)255-2762, in KS (913)776-4041 Manhattan, KS 66502, USA
