I can't recall a mail program which couldn't be configured to work with 
Multilink. After all, the mail programs usually don't have any networking 
code in them, separate programs are used for both receiving and sending 
mail. For sending mail with Multilink you could get the SMTPPost program 
found in the INetUtils archive on Aminet. With Multilink incoming mail is 
stored on the unix host --- you don't even have a IP address yourself. 
Use AmiPOP to get the mail if you need to. A POP3 daemon should be 
installed on the unix host then.
