I think there is a DOS SMTP server in EZNOS. You will have to compile the sources yourself, because mail server is not enabled by default (IIRC). EZNOS also has a lot of other services like http, pop, ftp, ... When running you can shell out to DOS and send the mail (it should work, EZNOS also has some multitasking built-in). The only problem I think is that it uses a lot of RAM - not much will be left for a mail client.
