Here are some possibilities:

Domain Direct: DNS registry with free mail. They give you 1 POP mailbox and 5 forwarding addresses. One nice thing is that they provide catch-alls, i.e., all mail addressed to anything@yourdomain.com can be captured to your POP account. I use this with Fetchmail on my Linux box to create individual accounts for all my family members. One drawback, the POP quota is only 5 MB so I have to poll frequently. Another is that fetchmail with POP can't handle BCCs correctly, so this is not too good for mailing lists.

DirectNIC: Also offers domain registry services as well as email. DNS is cheaper, mailboxes cost a bit more. A friend who doesn't need email uses this and has no complaints.

No-IP
: These guys also provide free DNS under the no-ip.com domain (and a few others). They can host your domain and give you a backup MX capability. More expensive than the other two but probably more full-featured if you can host your own SMTP server.
