When I say "cheap", I mean less than a hundred bucks per year, preferably about $35. Does $0 count? I routinely offer to do domain registrations for my immediate UUCP neighbors. I offer nameservice and MX forwarding for them. No hassles, no problems, and no $$$. --Karl domain contact for, e.g., ysu.edu and morningstar.com
