Yes -- per host, e.g. k7ve@k7ve.ampr.org. If ampr.net wanted to host everyone, e.g. k7ve@ampr.org then Google offers their Google Apps to non-profits, but you would need an admin team.

At the very least shouldn't AMPRnet folks be able to send and receive email from other AMPRnet stations? I'd think that would be a good first step for dealing with EMail. A bit easier and safer than dealing with the whole Internet.
- Are you willing to establish an email server and be willing to
maintain it?
- Who would be responsible for maintaining the accounts?
- Do you have a privacy policy in place?
- What is your ISP's bandwidth limit?
- Do you have the facilities to backup and store emails for all users?
- The same DNS entries would be required, and the ampr.org domain (or
subdomain) would have to be the only one used.
Hosting local Email is one of the things that makes 44net special. We can, and should, do our own local Email. Twenty years ago local mail was normal and expected - and hosted on DOS boxes...
