For some reason, my messages to LinuxChix mailing lists are often
delayed by up to 12 hours in the linuxchix.org mail queues (I've looked
at the headers, it isn't my mail queue). Cc-ing you on this one.

1and1's FAQ claims that you can do this:

    To [create a glue domain], please create a subdomain
    "ns.domain-of-your-choice.com" and assign an IP Address to it. Once
    the IP Address has propogated you can assign
    "ns.domain-of-your-choice.com" as the DNS for your domain
    "domain-of-your-choice.com".

For what it's worth, the Google search that turned this up was:
    nameserver site:1and1.com
