Jack, yes, pskmail will work with PSK31 as well, in fact it will work with any mode that transports the complete set of ASCII characters (I am working on incorporating RTTY as well).
But you will find PSK63 almost as good as PSK31, and a bit less sensitive to frequency stability. I am sure any of the server ops will open a PSK63 channel for you if you need it. We can also run modes like DominoEx if you need it. I know what you mean with the PSION, I used a PSION 3a, and I wrote a CW contest keyer and a contest log program for it.
