Google released a new service a while back, I don't remember exactly when but I've been using it now for a couple months and I've been very impressed.
Google Apps is what they call it. It's basically many of the web services you've come to expect from Google using your own domain name instead of Google's. So you can get the awesome Gmail interface system but you're using your own domain. In fact, my main domain now (mrdigital.net) is using this system. My Site still exists on my hosting service but I've moved all the email hosting to Google. So I log in now to my email through an interface that is exactly the same as Gmail. I'm loving it. Of course, if you still want to use your POP3 client such as Thunderbird you can still do that too but the email is still hosted through Google and when you're away from your PC you can log into a great web interface to check your email instead of some cheesy thing your ISP might be providing to you.
They offer two versions of the system. A free version which will show you some ads while you're looking at email like Gmail does, or a paid per user version which gives you 5x the space (10gb!) and no ads. It runs $50 per user per year though, a little steep in my opinion but could be worth it.
If you have your own domain, or even if you don't, you can sign up through Google at the link I provided and you can even register a new domain through them if you need to. Seriously, why aren't you already looking at it? :)
