Congrats for fully launching Forward Email – a forwarding service
for email that doesn't keep logs or store emails, and which works with ARC to ensure
signed forwards don't trip email filters 👏. I'm a happy user! ❤️

So they made this cool app that forwards email from your own domain to your Gmail inbox. There is even a catch all option, so sales@, support@, etc all goes to your own inbox. Check it out! It's free! forwardemail.net
