I have gmail handling my email for a custom domain for free.

You sign up with Google and follow a process they have, which involves setting some MX records and CNAME records on your custom domain to point to google's hosts.

This was free within some limits... I guess I assume it still is? (I set this up years ago. Google's never asked me for money for it.) I don't remember what the limits are. I and my family never hit them. I guess there are limits on the number of accounts and storage space.

I suppose since it's free it's a matter of time before they stop doing this, but so far so good.




Don't let your account go - Google grandfathered in people like you and me who already had it, but they aren't allowing any new free registrations.


Google Apps For Your Domain / G Suite is no longer free for new accounts.


Yep - I somehow managed to move my account from free to paid (~$5.50AUD/month). I'd love to cancel it, but Google offer no migration for Play Store apps - so I'd have to re-buy everything.
