Wasn't QWK files (packets?) something from BBSs?

I would think that you would need something, like a BBS, to receive the
email, package it up, for you to then download it from, read / reply /
compose offline, and then subsequently upload to the BBS.

So, what is going to be the server (BBS) side that you exchange email
with?  Will it handle your SMTP email?

Chances are good that I'm completely wrong.  In which case, I'd like to
read a correction and learn something.
