Mail Forwarding Problems with CNAME...

I'm looking into transferring my domains to NameCheap. I notice that the instructions for How to Set Up and Test a CNAME Domain with S-Drive don't include NameCheap. Was this straightforward when you did this, Tom? I would hate to go from one morass to another.

Thanks.

Sorry, I don't use S-Drive. I do use NameCheap and like their prices and interface.
CoffeeCup... Yeah, they are the best!

Update:

On 1and1, when you do the CNAME setup for 1and1 there is a box you must check before confirming. It says:

I am aware and accept that all current DNS settings, e-mail addresses, and forwards will be disabled.

Therefore by moving the CNAME to CC there is no way I can use the email address associated with my domain name.

Who on the forum uses S-Drive and keeps their own Domain? And if so, what Domain Registrar do you use that allows you to keep and forward the email associated with your Domain Name?

Thanks,
Greg
