Hi!

Novell is working on "Portable" Netware.  This product is written to run
on Unix as well as VMS machines.  NCR is one company that will offer
"Portable" Netware on its Unix boxes.  Having a Netware file server on
a Unix box (presumably with TCP/IP), mail could be sent from a client on
a pc out to the Internet.  I dont know of any commercial based products that
are available yet for "Portable" NetWare, they arent too far down the line
Im sure -- or you could write one yourself.
