You can set up QuickMail with an SMTP Gateway so that it can send
'plain ol' Internet e-mail'.  That means putting the proper headers
on, etc.  If you do that, then, yes, QuickMail can be received by
NeXTs.  NeXTs can send mail to QuickMail clients, too, as long as it
is 'non-NeXT' mail.  (no funny enclosures, etc.)
