Default Email forwarding or something

Basically, I have 2 requests. Because my mum is about to go into business, for some reason, she doesnt want to use "hotmail", even though it has 2GB of storage compared to bigpond, which has 20MB. She reckons she won't be taken seriously lol.

Anyway. I need the following 2/3 services.

1. An good email account with good storage and anti-spam. Anything thats free and has over 1GB of storage.

2. A service which can forward emails to that account from another email domain.
E.g. you email blueparukia@compuforums.org and it redirects to blueparukia@hotmail.com
Neither of those are valid addresses

3. (Optional): A service that can set up an email address with your own domain name. This will be the one publicly displayed, and when you email it, it forwards to the hotmailor whatever.

Thanks a heap,

BP

Well, I'm not sure if it fits these specifications, but I use Eudora. It's a great email program, and it''s free if you use sponsored mode. Hope this helps

ok, well gmail goes without saying, and i can give you an invite to it, if you want. it has like at least 7 gigs, and growing, but besides that, i use yahoo mail. its easy to use, has a great spam blocker, and its a well known site, so i doubt your mom would think that it wouldn't be taken seriously.

Well, isn't gmail qualified then since it got 2.8 and you were asking for something above 1gb ?
