I don't know about Lemmy, but in general there aren't good bridges between email and the Fediverse. Zulip has email integration, which is not at all the same as a bridge: any given channel can have an email address, and sending to that email address can, potentially, send messages to the channel -- but they aren't much like other Zulip messages. Outbound, not so much. I don't anything about Discourse's email bridging, if any -- my possibly naive take is that email users are distinctly second class, and also web users are distinctly second class -- there really aren't many features compared to a decent email client. -dsr-
