Need good web FORWARDING recommendation

Anyone know a good one? Basically I need:
(1) E-mail forwarding that supports large attachments (at least 10 MB per mail).
(2) Unlimited e-mail aliases for the forwarding.
(3) Probably only 100 MB of web space for my site (my needs aren't huge).
(4) CHEAP!
Either Australian-based or USA, but my experience has shown USA to be cheaper.
Edited because I actually need forwarding, not hosting.

Sounds like you are really going for economical bandwidth. I host websites but sounds like you are going to be eating up a lot of bandwidth if each email is 10mb or larger. How many emails per month? Diskspace is cheap, bandwidth is not.

Actually, I just realised I need web + email FORWARDING, not HOSTING.
So that's made it a bit easier to find a company to do it. Still awaiting their
replies (I wish it wasn't the weekend).

That is a really good deal - are you using them? If so, do you know if the SSL certs works for all of the 6 domains?
Wow... I just might be kicking my dedicated server to the curb.

Check my sig, we can always setup a private deal if you are interested.
As for bluehost.com; 250 Gigs of transfer a month just doesn't happen. No-body has the infastructure to support that.

Thanks to all replies; I was advised to use
www.zoneedit.com, which I have
done, and it's 100% free for up to 5 domains. I sent myself a test e-mail of
8.24 MB in size and it was forwarded without problem.
(BTW: My own ISP quoted me $200 for the same service! Just goes to show
that a little homework, and recommendations from good people like you, can
save you a lot of wasted cash).

I used to use websitesource, good for normal websites, but the sql database was down quite a lot. It was really annoying!
Anyhow I've since moved to dreamhost and they are REALLY good. I get 1 terabyte per month bandwidth, a free domain name, unlimited sql databases and unlimited domain hosting.
Here is a code that will get you upto $50 off:

Here is the link to the package I am on (the crazy domain insane package!):

I've got all my sites hosted on the same account (doubledutchdesigns,applepanic,easymdb,spymon,leoquiz,etc...) - No problems so far.
