I’m currently hosting my WP sites on a crappy shared hosting package, and I’m planning on taking a VPS here at DigitalOcean.
Since I’m a total newcomer in the world of dedicated servers, migration will probably be a pain. I think I’ll be able to handle the moving the sites (altough I fear hosting multiple WP sites on a single droplet isn’t gonna be easy), but I haven’t seem to found any kind of e-mailforwarding service.
Is there any way to implement an easy emailforwarding service (no need for separate mailboxes, just forwarding) for DigitalOcean hosting? If not, are there any recommendations for third party alternatives?
Thanks!

I ran into this problem today and found this solution (http://simplyian.com/2015/01/07/Hacking-GMail-to-use-custom-domains-for-free/) took me about 10 minutes to setup and works great!!
