Sure it does,
PC pine works fine,
but you need an old copy,
like vintage wine...

Even known to work with Lan Manager with the right protocol stack shims...

PCpine 3.96 is the latest that supports DOS but if you are running LAN manager
(a memory hog) I would suggest 3.91 as it is somewhat smaller.
