Me.com email addresses online?

Macrumors.com is reporting that for some .Mac users, using a me.com email address seems to be working. For instance, if your .Mac account name is username, sending an email to username@me.com works the same as sending one to username@mac.com.

Your mileage may vary -- as of 8:35 PM EDT on Saturday, June 28, 2008, it wasn't working for me.

Update: About four hours later, it's working for me.

Works for me as well. I have to say that I am more excited about the hype for this than I was for the latest incarnation of iPhone.

Still no love for 'me' from 'me'

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at yahoo.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

:
17.148.20.83 does not like recipient.
Remote host said: 550 5.1.1 unknown or illegal alias: user@me.com
Giving up on 17.148.20.83.

Works for me. Of course, I've had my .mac e-mail address for almost 10 years (since 1999) when iTools first came out for free. :-)

Needless to say, I'll use .mac more often, but welcome MobileMe functionality with open arms.

Not working for me in Oz... SMTP error in sending. I assume it will take some time for changes to replicate.

But I'll be keeping .Mac

Works for me...I also sent an email as username@me.com to my gmail account and it showed up as username@me.com and not .mac. I changed it in Leopard mail.
