FYI, I would NOT be recommending Digital Ocean for email servers.. given
their current reputation. However, you can find many good hosting
companies that offer a server for $5/month.
I think that is still the lowest tier at Linode for instance.

Where would you recommend hosting your domain so that you can pop/imap, use

gmail? I no longer have a website setup, so mail is the only thing I care
about. I'm fine with a solution that has me setting up a new gmail account
and just popping the mail to there, but what are folks using these days?
(assuming I have no desire to run my own server)
I run my own VM for this. Relatively small incremental costs beside a few boxes I need to
run for ~unrelated things. This also keeps me sharp and allows me to try hackish
experiments on live email streams. If you were willing to go this route, $6-$12 would
provide a DigitalOcean "droplet" with up to 50Gb of good storage. They have
static IPv4 and IPv6 addresses although the latter are actively discouraged from being
usable for email.
I also run a few mailservers in AWS with great results, although slightly more
expensive.
