Can Django be run on a mainstream web hosting company like 1and1.com
or does it require a hosting company that specially offers django ?

I don't know anything about 1and1 specifically. If they don't provide
Django support out-of-the-box, you will need sufficient access, space
and permissions to be able to install and run it on their server. Many
'mainstream' providers do provide access of this sort.

As a general advice don't run anything on 1and1.com ; )

Unless you want to state a specific good reason, don't make comments
like this - we have been using 1and1 for email and static type web
hosting for a long time with excellent reliability and low cost.

right, it's good for this kind of things, the day you run in trouble
you can forget their support number (they have ?)

But your are completly right, I should not make this kind of
comments :)
