The kernel is not an issue for eznet.  It is pppd that has the
problem with the kernel.

I avoid spam by using a disposable email address which routes all
my mail via spamcon.org.  It's a fee service.

I said pmail was not cooperating with the mailreader (although I
have now fixed that).  In order to get mail to work, four different
layers need to cooperate:
(1)  the dialer and connector (eznet)
(2)  the network (pppd)
(3)  the mail transport agent (pmail)
(4)  the mail reader/writer (readmail)

In order to get (3) to work with (4), I had to write a script
to format the output of (4) in a way that (3) could understand.
If you can read this message, that means its working.

Cheers,
Steven
