I use a domain name which is DNS hosted elsewhere but all my mail goes through Plusnet before forwarding to several Gmail accounts, depending on the address.
Has anyone a good suggestion of how to maintain this arrangement outside of Plusnet?

The only thing you can really do is to rent some web hosting or just mail hosting and then adjust the dns for your domain(s).
As for any existing email you've left on the server, you might want to think about taking that and saving it to your PC or moving it to another mail server if it supports imap.

This is not the <user>.plus.com domain I'm talking about; it's a personal domain name.
The DNS is hosted at easily.co.uk as it's cheap.
nameservers with plusnet to use their domain management.
email for the domain is sent to plusnet mail servers (mx records point to plusnet).
email is then forwarded to various gmail accounts depending which of the family it's addressed to.

I think you're right. It was very convenient having it all in one place with Plusnet, but I guess I'll have to pay someone for it!
Thanks,

you could look at zoho mail https://www.zoho.com/mail/ they will host a single domain for free. Not sure how good their forwarding facilities are though
Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

Will Easily's own email forwarding suffice? (It is limited to 20 mailbox names but can include a catch-all for non-matched aliases)

I've gone with Gandi.net. They provide 1000 forwards and 5 mailboxes. I don't require any mailboxes, just the forwards.
And it's free.

Your own registrar is free too, but if 20 aliases isn't enough then that's fair enough (and Gandi are a good company - I buy all my domains through them).
