I don't remember all of the product names, or particulars, but you
might want to check into the AT&T products in the PMX/Term family.
They have both MAC and PC versions of e-mail products that are reasonably
friendly, and TOTALLY compatible with regular UNIX mail.  Various
portions work thru servers, connect to ATTMAIL, etc., which also
provides mail exchange with other hosts (HP, DEC, etc.), X.400 service,
etc.

This may not fit your needs, but from what I saw, it provided a nicely
integrated system that didn't trounce on UNIX mail.
