In a doomsday scenario, what would be possible transcontinental communication options?

The setting is present day Earth as we know it. No Magic, and no technologies which do not already exist.

Let's say there is all-out nuclear war and much of the existing infrastructure is destroyed. How do people communicate across different continents? Is e-mail still available?

I have this feeling that our infrastructure is incredibly fragile because it doesn't take but a small winter storm to knock out power, communications, etc. So I don't have a lot of faith in it.. unless of course, someone elucidates on this.
