3) I have a domain and the registrar lets me specify email redirects by user, with upto 3 forward addresses per emain name. I'm sorely tempted to forward all my emails to GMail.

4) If you do you GMail then you can still send emails when not on ntl's network. You do need to authenticate you to SMTP which isn't needed with ntl's as they only let people on their network send.
were not talking about standard gmail we talking about google mail for your domain which actally uses your DOMAIN email account for the gmail service.


Edit: I think i totally misread your post, re-reading it you do make good points actually, sorry!
