Oh, it's not out of vanity (well, okay, maybe a little...), it's more
just to learn and say "I did it."

Surprisingly, even without Zoneedit's mailforward, mail to my domain
does come to me. However, I only update my IP with Zoneedit once every
hour, so it's possible mail for me could go astray. For now I'll let
sleeping dogs lie til I get a static IP and a provider with some brains.
Then I'll start in with the fun stuff :-)
