To clarify my earlier comment on web mail - what I was suggesting was to set up a local (to each node) webmail machine that would then send SMTP over packet. The interface between the local ham's equipment and the LAN clients would be a web browser. At no time would the http be going over the air. (Except maybe a local WiFi link).
Also, it might be easier to set up the web mail server to run text only and to block large attachments right up front. While I'm sure it's still possible to deal with problems the other way, you'd be stuck having to reject and send back a message that the user had already clicked "send".
