I have no idea if this can be done from the menu, but you can easily
do it by hand. If your other OS is on /dev/hda1, add
other=/dev/hda1
	label=some_name

to /etc/lilo.conf.

You may also want to add a line like "delay=30".

Remember to run lilo before you reboot.

Yup. You can use fetchmail to get mail from your ISP to your
localhost, and the MTA (exim/smail/sendmail/...) can queue your
outgoing mail and send it via your ISP when you go online.
