@domketley Fastmail looks like a good choice. You should be able to get a domain from anyone and set the MX record to, um, whatever fastmail tells you to?

I'm pretty sure mythic beasts and dreamhost do too

@domketley Oh, wow! Perhaps make a filter that matches everything and forwards it to a new email address?
