Puuhhh this is really painfull for just checking and reading email. Install qpopper or something else with POP3-support from the ports and let the Win95-user fetch their email with a Win95-client that supports POP3 (like Eudora or Communicator). Have also a look at poppassd for changing email-account-passwords. For all other points you mentioned have a look at samba. I am sharing my printer and filesystems with Win95-boxes over the lan with samba.
