Have a look at pc-mail. It lets a PC speak to a UNIX box (via UUCP or
via a networked disk). The PC software is targeted towards non-tecnical
users. Source, binaries and docs are available with anon ftp from
tuewsd.lso.win.tue.nl (131.155.2.8). The following is an excerpt from
the user tutorial.

o    Mail messages can be edited, printed, replied to, sent,
     and received, from	within the mail	program.

o    Messages  can  be	created	 with  almost  every   word-
     processing	package.

o    Almost every command can be selected by pressing a	sin-
     gle  key.	There  is a "help" facility that gives brief
     explanations.

o    You can set up an "alias" data base to avoid the use of
     the  usually cryptical electronic mail addresses.	This
     facility can also be used to  implement  small  mailing
     lists.

o    There is a	facility for personalized headers and signa-
     tures.
