I understand from Daniele Terdina that Q-emulator for Mac will be getting an
update soon that might include TCP/IP support. If that is the case, I might
take on writing a  POP3/SMTP mail client when my skills improve further.

One unused advantage of a QL-specific mail client is the ability to email
files to each other, and have the mail program protect and retain the
headers. I might need assistance with that, but I could give it a go.
