Access to VMS MAIL mail boxes is made possible by the documented callable MAIL
interface (for which you need to use some undocumented item codes to get any
performance).  Until DEC make available a callable interface to ALL-IN-1 IOS,
MailWorks (a.k.a. A1MAIL), or other Message Router mail boxes, we cannot even
consider the feasibility of server access to those mail boxes.

Now, DEC does sell, at very reasonable prices, Macintosh and PC clients which
can access your MailWorks mail boxes.
