Using the Windows Branded Live site.

* Update - After releasing Outlook.com in 2012, Microsoft has stopped its Live service and custom domains. If you had emails setup with a custom domain, they will continue working but you cannot add new accounts or manage passwords with an admin account.

Microsoft Live has a service (formerly called Custom Domains) that allows you to create a Window’s Live hosted site. Its called the Partner Live program. (https://partners.microsoft.com/partnerprogram/welcome.aspx)
However trying to locate the free service proved difficult. So I went back to the article in CODE magazine (http://www.code-magazine.com/Article.aspx?quickid=0804112) So in short logon to admincenter.live.com to get started!
Now lets try Google’s Apps. Hmm… no way from the search page to even find it. Found the address on one BLOG page. http://www.google.com/a 
Both require that you must modify your DNS records.
