My goal is to be able to get/send mail from my ISP whether logged in as
Linux or Windows AND have 1 single set of mail files that I can examine
from either Linux or Windows.   I work about 1/2 the time booted on
each, so it would be handy.

I have a dual boot pc with one of the windows partitions read/writeable
to linux.  Win 95, Redhat Linux 6.2, Intel pentium desktop.
I could upgrade to W2K, but have no compelling reason, yet.

I have Netscape 4.75 working under Windows.
I have Netscape 4.72 working under Linux (can be upgraded to 4.75). 
 
I almost have it working but I think Netscape uses a different set of
summary files for Linux & windows.  I might be able to softlink the
linux name to the windows name. 

Ideally, I'd like to use MS Outlook on Windows (let's not get
sidetracked with MS comments) & Netscape or Mozilla on Linux.

I thought I'd run it past a couple netscape & linux newsgroups before
proceeding, in case anyone else has already done it or finds it
interesting.    This is the 1st time I've looked under the hood at
email.

My ultimate goal is quick, consistent access to my email.  Maybe I'm
barking up the wrong tree.   Maybe there's a different solution.
Any advice is appriciated.
