Is it possible to interface with email -- whether native on the device, or some built-in protocol to send email in Unity?

Its possible but you will need to write own plugins to do so to use the platforms native functionality for it, Unity does not hook up any such functionality. I think Prime31 has such a plugin and the Unity EP from Bliprob contains such functionality as well. The mailapi is rather simple, its a matter of a single function to get the view to show, let the user feed the data and send it. You can prefill the mail if required Thanks for the link to Prime31, very nice.

Should be able to use the .NET smtp classes, e.g. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.mail.smtpclient.aspx If they don't work, you could use WWW (from the Unity API) to send to a webserver, which creates and sends the email http://System.Net its likely only partially there. In addition http://System.Net generally its a iOS Pro only feature.

the WWW approach caveat is that users could end up abusing your server for sending email spam. the easiest would be to just have them send it locally from within the app, so the liability's on their device

(not to mention bandwidth costs - for something like a screenshot to email option)
