I saw the same need, but I've actually purchased domains for all of my children, so that when they get older, I can transfer ownership to them.

10-18 years is a long time window, so I felt that purchasing a domain was more appropriate than setting up an address at a service which may or may not still be available in decades.

Thank goodness for services like Purelymail[1] and Forward Email[2] that offer free or cheap forwarding from various domains!
