How do you get SMTP mail into an IBM mainframe running MVS cheaply ?

I know about Knet, Mitek, ACC, etc. but these are all high cost systems
that require special hardware interfaces. The MVS system does not have (and
will not ever have) PROFFS, so I need a standalone SMTP mail that allows
TSO users to send/receive SMTP mail into/from the Internet.

The users that are interested in this already have a Bridge CS1/SNA box -
would this be any use ?? They wil also soon have a Sun workstation and could
run the SUNLINK SNA software as an alternative path to their local LAN and
hence the rest of the world.
