Selling email addresses at your domain(?)
 

Hi - I'm hoping someone can help and I'm not quite sure where this belongs. What approaches are there to selling email addresses at your own domain? E.g. if you own "f r e d.com" and want to allow anyone who wants to come along and register an @f r e d.com address for a small fee each year. Are there any sites that exist that allow you to do this easily? Also, what are the legal/tax implications (in the UK)? Would I need a reseller account or is that just for hosting?

I could also ask the same the same about subdomains.

Thanks for any help/clarification!

Sorry to bump this, any ideas guys or do I need to clarify my question? Thanks.

I would look for 'e-mail hosting' in google
Here is one company which may provide the service you need:
http://www.fusemail.com/

I don't know if they are flexible enough when it comes to billing of your own.

Everyone.net is also well-known for similar services.
Basically you don't have to provide a server, you just delegate the domain to their name servers.

As for the tax implications I cannot really advise. Are you a business owner or DBA ?
As for the legal implications properly written T&C are critical ;)

Couldn't you just build a simple site using your domain name, get it hosted with someone allowing unlimited email accounts and then sell the email addresses to others for this domain?
