Not sure if this is the place to ask, but you guys know so much, I know one of you can answer this question. I want to get my own domain name. No, it's not a vanity thing. Just need a permanent address as I will be changing my ISP and need to lock in an address. My understanding is that some of the companies that will sign me up end up retaining ownership of the domain name, thus I can lose it at a later date. So, how do I get a name in my name that nobody can steal? And then, how do I set it up so the mail is forwarded to me at my ISP? And then, how do I send out mail from my ISP and still show it being from my shiny new domain name? Hey, I think this is a software qauestion!
