You can arrange to send and receive E-mail over HF, but not by using tcpip.
In a general sense, tcpip has been found to be almost completely useless
over HF, and not much better on the higher frequencies. Small tcpip RF
(radio) LANs have been built on the VHF/UHF freqs, but these are of course
useless for sending data any significant distance.
Here's a good one: Hard-core tcpip enthusiasts now connect to each other
over the telephone (Internet) and PRETEND that they are communicating by
Radio. That's how lousy tcpip is as an amateur Packet Radio protocol. Due to
this "Amateur Telephone" phenomena associated with Amateur tcpip, that group
has become the laughingstock of the Amateur Radio service, and serious Hams
won't have anything to do with them.
"Amateur tcpip" is a joke. It died on the vine, due to lack of suitability
for it's environment. (Amateur RADIO)
To get your HF E-mail service, you should be looking into the PACTOR
mailboxes on HF, not the poor Amateur tcpip folks who can't handle HF
communications at all, and must substitute for this ability by getting on
the phone and pretending to be legitimate Hams.
