Hi,
easy! ... I have a beta program our company is in the middle of
developing (along side 20 other projects, hence the beta!!) that might
be what you're looking for.

It is an email "server" that stores incoming and outgoing mail messages
in standard dbase format (on a LAN if you wish), therefore you can very
easily "attach" the dbase file within you Access / Paradox / Dbase /
whatever application and incorporate email!!

When you want to send/receive email you simply kick the server-progfram
in ... it dials the Internet and sends/receives, then kicks out...
simple!

Email me if you want a copy of the beta ... and since you're in ireland
you can buy me a beer sometime ;)

As I said though, it is beta and therfore still has a few bugs to be
worked out ... nothing serious though, as I have the program and an
email client already up and working on my won 20-user lan.

Chio!

- Allen.
