[LispM] Anyone Using Zmail?

   I am setting up a new Genera machine and wonder if anyone has
   gotten zmail to work with a more modern server, like IMAP or
   POP. Ideally interacting with a Google IMAP server (which is
   definitely a non-standard IMAP). In a fantasy, I’d like it to work
   with MS Exchange, so I could use it at work.

You'd need to implement IMAP and/or POP for it to work.  Simpler is to
let a host provide a mbox file that you can read of NFS, and have the
host update.  And a similar setup for sending mail.  You will have
issues with reading MIME obfuscated emails though.

   Before I bark up that tree though: is it worth it?

Only you can decide how you find your time is worth spending.
