need email forwarding advice please

Hi. I have my own domain that I use for email. I was thinking of using a service like forwardemail.net, gmailify, or something similar. I might want to have everything go to my gmail and be able to send as the 2 email addresses I use with the domain. Who here has a setup like that that works well here? Any tips or advice would be much appreciated.

I am using gmailify.com to forward to my Gmail address. I've been doing it since July and its working fine. It has an email log of all forwarded emails. It also pulls emails thru POP in case Gmail rejects a forwarded email. I have 2 domains setup as catchall. I am very happy with the service.

I took advantage of an MXroute 'Black Friday' offer last year - Small Package ($15 for 3 years of 10GB storage):

https://mxroute.blackfriday/

I have multiple domains set up to forward to a Gmail account, and have also set up 'send mail as' within my Gmail account, using the MXroute SMTP servers.

Within the MXroute Admin, I have set up each domain as 'catchalls' but there is also the option to block specific addresses.

That's cost effective for mutliple domains.

You are saying mxroute gives you an option to block a spammed alias? I have over 200 aliases and 2 of them are spammed. where can I block them in mxroute I also have black friday special.

In the MXroute Admin (Direct Admin), go to 'E-mail manager' then 'Forwarders'.

Create a forwarder for the alias in question, with the destination as ":fail:"

I have done this using POBox.com (back when you could still sign up), ForwardEmail, SimpleLogin, and others. If I were to sign up today I would go with ForwardEmail. They have a very reasonable price for robust services, and in my experience everything works as it should.
