Some solutions might be to use a virtual machine, such as Win4Lin. I think
the current version of Win4Lin can use your Winmodem.
Netscape is another solution. Netscape uses the standard RFC822 mailbox
format. However, there might be a problem with line endings. DOS based text
files use crlf to end a line in a text file where Unix systems use a single
newline (eg. lf). Unfortunately, most of the better Windows Email programs
are not portable to Linux/Unix.
