Take a look at what the Santa Clara County ARES/RACES group
has been doing.

The network consists of four Linux nodes running JNOS,
which provide standard AX.25-based mail service to client
systems in the field (city and county EOCs, mobile and
portable stations) and have a TCP/IP-based store-and-forward
message backbone.

The preferred client implementation is Outpost, an Outlook-
like email front-end.  This is, alas, Windows-based (although
I'm told it runs OK under some versions of WINE).
