I like this idea democratises the assets. But it would be great to use @farmhack.org email addresses.
I dont like the general over reliance *almost everywhere* on Google - gmail, hangouts, youtube, search, drive, docs etc. They get way to much of everyones data!!!! and have you ever stopped to read the terms and conditions? I read a bit of their email terms and you are effectively handing many rights over to them.
Could set up email on a server somewhere (obvious disadvantage is more work for devs/admin) or run redirects - some domain hosts give loads of redirects - eg. 1000 with https://www.gandi.net/
