Yes, you should be able to install the Email program's APK on the
emulator. You could download the Android source and compile Email and
then install on the emulator. Alternately I know there is a project
that has forked (but will hopefully merge back their changes) the
email client and there is a binary distribution you can get from
http://code.google.com/p/k9mail/ . I haven't tried it, but this should
install on the emulator. Please let us know your results if you try
this.

Cheers,
