There are all sorts of such products. A few come to mind:

	Microsoft Mail		Microsoft Inc.
	CC:Mail			CC:Mail Inc. 		415-321-0430
	Alisa MailMate		Alisa Systems Inc.	818-792-9474
	LifeLine 		Sun Micro (PCNFS)


Most of these products have third party SMTP gateways. For instance, the
Quicmail product which runs on both Macs and PC's, can be interfaced with a
third party gateway package from Star-Nine. However this license is $100 per
Mac or PC mail recipient! I prefer the Que package which is public domain
and may be downloaded from sumex-aim.stanford.edu via ftp or via mailer
daemon (que-request) at goldilocks.lcs.mit.edu.  This software implements
a maildrop for quickmail and uses unix aliases for each user to send mail
to a program mailer. I can provide simple mods to sendmail.cf and named.hosts
to cause all mail to user@applenet.domain to go to the maildrop. They are
planning network connection in future, now all pickups and deliveries are by
modem. I am working on version to mount spool disk via Tops on the sun.
The star-nine version, though expensive, can support a named server running
on a mac via an Ethernet card and Mac/TCP. My understanding is that macs 
could be run with dynamic internet addresses and the named server would publish
the user's registered address.
