Would it be possible to do some kind of mail redirection for the duration 
of the service outage? I.e., is it possible, using DNS, to redirect mail 
for ellipsis.cx to, e.g., martial.homedns.org?

I would be happy to serve as a temporary mail POP server for the duration 
of charybdis' downtime. I just don't know anything about how to do such a 
thing, but I'm learning pretty fast these days.
