www.runbox.com - Runbox offers a bunch of domains (like FastMail), POP and IMAP access, interesting support of text-messaging notifications, lots of storage (including FTP file storage access) for a pretty low price. I've been using them as a provider for many years now, and have been very happy with the service.
