Also, your free address will work if it doesn't rely on DNS for like the imap 
or smtp server. So for instance, if your imap server is 
"imap.greenpete.co.uk" that would be fine.  The only problem would come if 
the server is named "imap.greenpete.free" or something similar.  Sending and 
receiving mail is all server side.
