Ok, so I'm late to the game.  :) 

I did a marginally similar thing here with Win98, except I was using an old 
release of NetModem instead of COM/IP.  I just loaded an instance of the 
venerable BNU 1.70 as the fossil right in the dos window with the mailer, and 
it worked great with FD 2.26 and BinkXE XH7.

Depending on how 'dos' the command prompt in XP is and whether XP will allow 
such low-level control over a 'serial port' or not, it may work.
