A few years ago Quik-Comm, run by General Electric Information Services (GEIS), 
the same company which runs GEnie, offered an optional package which provided
email to postal mail, supposedly entered at a post office near the destination.

When I gave it a try, the "Quik-Gram" to me here in Washington was postmarked
somewhere in Michigan.  However, it was of great value to the staff at our
laboratory in Malaysia, who also had access to our Quik-Comm service.

Sprint, MCI, AT&T, etc., may have similar products for their customers.  If
any of them do, I doubt that they would open the service to non-clients
sending email through gateways.  (Same same as email to fax - no pay, no play!)

Additional information may be available from sales offices for these
companies, usually reachable by 800- numbers, or from such addresses as

  postmaster@relay1.geis.com, postmaster@sprint.com, postmaster@attmail.com,
  postmaster@mcimail.com, postmaster@compuserve.com, etc.
