Transferring an email domain. Idiots guide needed. Registered, hosted where?

After more years than I care to remember with metronet and then plusnet they are booting me out to EE. Feeling aggrieve and hassled. It's a choice of email hosting or landline.

The question is where is my domain registered and hosted, whats the difference? I bought my domain from Reg123 and I think it's registered there and I pay them to renew the domain. I'm guessing plusnet host it and as such hosting needs to be moved before being booting out. If it makes a difference, as far as I'm aware I've not been migrated to Greenby. Sounds like that's not been going well!

So am I right so far, and how do I go about it?

I'm maybe looking at Zoho and I'm assuming they host as well as operate the email service?

I've seen a few topics around transferring hosting but I'm a few steps behind that in knowledge and don't want to mess it up as the other domain users wouldn't be happy.

The clock is ticking as they have given me 30days notice! aaggghhhh No pressurehuh!

Thanks for any help

Jon
