Both communities #dicoado.org and #wikimini.org reported problems with their mailboxes after migration to #wmch-infrastructure. Last week we had a conversation with our Switzerland service provider and they confirmed that email had not been configured correctly. Premising that we apologize for this community disservice, let's fix this problem. I share my internal notes, just to make fun of myself, for this huge amount of brainstorming just to do this "5 minutes job": [X] Understanding whether we should ask volunteers to migrate their domains to WMCH, because of our technical limitations. NO. ✅ [X] Right now the relative authors of dicoado.org and wikimini.org are also domain holders, and they also manage their DNS zones (in DNS servers external to WMCH), and we can keep this situation as-is, to maintain their autonomy). Updated the documentation to say so. [X] ⚠️ Premising that WMCH has access to dicoado.org DNS area but has NO access to Wikimini.org DNS area. This is a known IT risk under control. [X] Activate commercial plans for the new mailboxes and confirm new WMCH expenses (requirement: no expenses in charge of the communities) [X] dicoado.org: renamed the already-existing mailbox `bonjour@` (since it was orphan and never used by DNS changes). Now it's an alias to `info` and created the mailbox `info`. So, no new mailboxes were introduced. [X] wikimini.org: created a new mailbox `info` (was completely missing). [X] So, just 1 new mailbox was introduced. Additional cost known to Ilario Valdelli.
