Hosting Email Accounts Only

Looking for new host

[AmyNY]

Currently hosting a few email accounts but not websites for various domain names. I purchased the domain names in the same place. The company is directnic. Pay $10 per year per domain name + $5 for each additional email address for each domain name. The service has gotten really bad. The excuse is that spam is clogging the servers. Does anyone have a suggestion for a new inexpensive place to host these email addresses? BTW, I have some websites hosted with them for $15 per year and I've been very happy with their website hostiing.

Follow on question: If I am hosting domain/website on my own co-lo server, and I want to offer email accounts to members of a website hosted on the co-lo server, can I sub-contract email services to a third-party to run off of the third-party's servers while the email accounts bear the domain name of the website where they are members?

Ex: I build Widget.com, a membership site and subcontract email services to EmailCo.com - which sets up accounts on EMailCo.com's servers with accounts that send mail from [e-mail]?

If possible,then who provides such services?

Any experince with such services - thumbs up or down?

Webwork-

I can tell you that this is possible. However, I don't know of a company that does it offhand. Usually I see it the other way around... A company has a hosting company take care of hosting the website & then they host the email on their own servers. Not too hard to setup, just changing some DNS records.

Everyone.net and godaddy offer email accounts.
