    Hey hoping someone here can help me.
    I was wondering if I wanted to set up a personalized email domain for a company how would I go about doing this. I would want to register with an email web hosting service I am guess and would that let me create email addresses such as PersonalName@MyPersonalDomain.ie
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks Guys and Girls

    The question could be answered without referring to specific hosting companies.

    I looked at 2 hosting company web sites. For example, one hosts email with Microsoft Exchange. The cost is roughly based on the number of email accounts required.

    Another idea is to buy a regular hosting package. It will allow you to set up a number of email accounts - the number depends on the hosting package.
    You should ask the hosting company about email diskspace.

    Another idea is to use Gmail for business. You change the MX DNS records for your domain to direct emails to Google. Google charge per email account.

    There's a free version of Google Apps which allows up to 10 email accounts. Just select the one on the left there. As mentioned, you'll need to register your domain with someone (e.g. register365.com) and then point the MX records at Google. There's a great interactive setup guide once you register with Google Apps.

    Any email accounts I set up I almost always use Google Apps. It's very handy.

    Register a domain via a registrar
    You can choose between .com .co .me or any of the other domain extensions out there

    Once you have the domain name you can get email service either via a hosting provider or via Google Apps

    But if you also want to get a blog or whatever you might be better off just getting hosting with the domain name ..
