I don't currently use any mail conduit, but then I have way too much email
to put it all on my pilot anyway.

What I do this keep a FileManager window open, showing my
~/.pilotmgr/SyncMemo directory.  You can drag&drop the individual emails
you want on your pilot into the category directory.. (I have a category
called "Email").  Then edit the new file to remove any headers you don't
want and give the memo a title.. SyncMemo will put the message on your
pilot at the next sync.

(or if you use openwindows you can use the PilotDrop program in the
 contrib/alan-harder directory which does the same thing, but pops up a
 text editor automatically after the drop)

Of course, if you have a pilot modem you can get IMAP mail readers on
the pilot.... this falls outside the realm of pilotmgr hotsync..
