This article is from the Amiga Networking FAQ, by Richard Norman with numerous contributions by others.

50 What electronic mail options are available?

The DECnet package from Thunder Ridge, Inc. supports VMSmail. AmigaELM supports UUCP mail.

Both packages require a mail utility on a remote host.

You should also pick up a copy of InetUtils from Aminet. InetUtils allows AmigaELM and other mail utilities to use SMTP instead of relying on a remote host.

Graham Walter has uploaded a SMTP daemon for AmiTCP to Aminet

Also available for both AmigaNOS flavors is a mail agent called BM, B-Dale's Messy-Dos Mailer. It doesn't have as nice an interface as Elm, but is easy to use and can build RFC822 formatted files.

GMail is available as part of INET225 .

VooDoo is available on Aminet. It provides a graphical user interface (GUI) but requires WB3.0 or higher.

To handle MIME attachments you might also want to pick up a copy of MUNPACK or MetaMail.
