Sochi.com Mail: powered by Yandex
From a trusted source, it became known that the city portal of Sochi, sochi.com, a former sochi.ru, had figured out how to save postal addresses of the form sochi .com.
Let me remind you: after the domain sochi.ru became the property of the Olympic Committee, the threat “from sochi.ru” hung over the mail. The Google Apps For your Domain service (about 2000 accounts), which was previously provided by agreement with Google Russia, has ceased to be free for domain owners. From now on, the minimum amount that will have to pay for one email account is $ 50.
Since the project sochi.com does not want to incur such costs, I had to look for a new solution. As they say, “there is everything,” and it was found by Yandex. Yandex offered Sochi.com a Yandex.mail service for a domain - these are 100 email accounts for free. The difference between the numbers 2000 and 100, of course, tangible. And yet it is better than nothing. At least, the “golden hundred” of postal owners will not go around the world in search of new addresses.

UPD: Just yesterday, the owner of Sochi.com Maxim Seledkin said that he was able to agree with Yandex and get 2000 email accounts. While the mail is working very slowly, but Yandex specialists promise to fix everything by the end of this week. Apparently, this is one of the first large projects in the framework of the Yandex.Mail for Domain service.
The alternative in the form of Windows Live Custom Domains was rejected due to lack of time.
