   Take a look at the online list of Apple II BBSs:
http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/~nathan/a2bbs.html

   You'll have to take a look at it and see which, if any are local
to you.

>2) Is there any good software available for web and e-mail access?

   Yes, it's called unix and ProTERM 3.1. Use ProTERM 3.1 to dial
up an internet service provider that supports shell access and
run from there. Very nice setup, that.

>3) What are some good on/offline support groups?

   For general questions and the like, comp.sys.apple2 is a good
place.  Or, you can take a look at the rest of my Apple II Resources
WWW page, linked in off the BBS page above.
