While we patiently work at a more standard outcome, I can offer people the choppy but doable "chained" solution.

 

If someone needs this, feel free to refer them to me. I'll route folks through my .com and set aside one of my OpenNIC email accounts for this.

 

Thank you all for your feedback,

 Hans

You could also use something like fetchmail on a *nix server to do the same thing!

Also, I believe that Julian and some others are working on some sort of email gateway for this. Not sure the progress on that, however :)

Hi,

First off, my thanks to Julian for his help in getting me set up and started on OpenNic.
Exchanging email between two OpenNic domain accounts works just fine, and sending from my OpenNic account "tennessee.jed AT rambleonrose.indy" to any ICANN account is easy too.

What turned out to be a bit more tricky, as expected, was to send, for example, from hans.sussenburger AT gmail.com to tennessee.jed AT rambleonrose.indy.
I would be interested to hear what you guys are doing to get this to work :-).

For my part, I set up a forwarding system with a demo version of SmartPOP2Exchange (by JAM Software GmbH) like this:
1) I set up a mailbox "tennesseejed-rambleonrose.indy AT sussenburger.com"
2) I installed SmartPOP2Exchange on my machine at home and configured it to pull the contents of the "jed" account and forward any mail it to tennessee.jed AT rambleonrose.indy

While this is not fully satisfying, the non-techies in my household are quite attached to the email manifestation of their domain :-).

Let me know what you think, and especially if you have something better,
