Sounds like fun.  I'd be interested in doing it pro bono, but am reluctant to 
take on the ongoing support part.

You might try seeing if DCG Computers (603 421 1800) can help you - they supply
hardware with Linux installed (www.dcginc.com).

If possible, I suggest you check of Eudora would be acceptable for email - I've
heard that there've been lots of problems with MS Outlook.

We run a bunch of Win95 boxes here with a central Sun server that has Samba,
a POP server, Hylafax, and printers.   A good deal of the source code has 
come off the Linux disks.
