These are two questions. The answers in order are: yes, yes.
As a ,matter of fact I'm sending and receiving e-mail from
my beloved Brasil here in Europe. No problems ever encountered
except that one of those bad (Three letter company name deleted)
mainframes is down. All Brasilian universities are reachable, 
most of them on Bitnet.Turnaroundtime here is 5 min. but keep
in mind the time difference (till sept. Brasil -5, later -3, from
Europe Summer Time).By the way I envy you for going there, would
give my left arm if I could go (that's serious).
Good luck (or as they say in Brasil: Fica com Deus!)
