having all the different components mesh perfectly makes a huge difference every day.
Hi TenFour,

We're on the same page. You chose Google, we chose Apple.

Having chosen Apple, we have to address the fact that it does not support private domain e-mail. That is, it supports john.doe@icloud.com, but not john.doe@ultimatewidget.com.

We have two options. The first is to use our domain host provider's e-mail application and the second is to pay for an outside service such as Google G Suite, Microsoft Office 365 or FastMail. We have decided to go with the second option and have chosen FastMail.

As domain host, we are interested in Netlify and are determining whether we can make it work for us. Our alternate is MediaTemple, mostly because I'm familiar with it and like its back end. I don't know much about your domain host - Google Domains - but I gather that you are using a variation on option #1, perhaps with the use of an alias, for your e-mail.

Cheers
