I have an old IBM-PC (8086) with 640K and hard drive that is on the ethernet 
and that has been assigned an internet node by the local domain.  Is there a
software package that can be used to receive and send mail directly from my PC?
I know about UUPC, but what I am looking for is something that can utilize my 
placement on internet and etherlink to avoid having to dial-up to a server.
If anyone knows of such a beast, please let me know, either posted here, or via
email.  As I am a grad student, shareware/public domain is best.

Also does anyone know of software that allows telnets from a remote site to 
access a PC at the MSDOS level (not just ftp)?
				Thanks
