: Can I use GMail to manage my emails? Say I buy a domain foo.com - can I easily use GMail to receive and send emails from an address of that domain. For example, admin@foo.com? Is this possible

Say I buy a domain foo.com - can I easily use GMail to receive and send emails from an address of that domain. For example, admin@foo.com?

Is this possible or do I have to install a mail server on my VPS? I would prefer something free.

No you cannot use GMail to:


...receive and send emails from an address of that domain.


You cannot receive e-mail via GMail that is directed to your domain unless you have a catch-all forwarding setup which requires a mail server.

To receive E-mails you will need to install mail server on your vps. You can either add e-mail account as pop or imap to your gmail. To send E-mail you can either use your own outgoing server (smtp.foo.com You will need to configure it in Gmail)or gmail's outgoing server.
