>From what I've read, and what I've played with, you don't need to make
the Outlook Express mail file anything.  You should be able to use it
as is, and then port it to something you can use in *nix.

I was looking for something to port Eudora Pro mail files to Linux, and
had a bit of frustration and problems and then it didn't really do that
well of a job.  But check out that app above.  Maybe it will work.

 | I am still a captive of Windows, mainly because I depend on Autocad and I
 | have a relatively huge mail archive stuck in Outlook Express.
 | 
 | Because of this dependency I find that while I am in Windows I make full use
 | of it's other facilities - Office97 etc. and only try to familiarise myself
 | with MLinux in my 'spare' time.
 | 
 | I would very much like to take the plunge and go full-time Linux but I want
 | to bring my mail archives with me in some form where I can consider them MY
 | files -  such as delimited ascii at worst or an accessible indexed database
 | format at best.
 | 
 | So, does anyone know of:
 | a) a prog that will convert OE files
 | b) a draghting package similar to Autocad for Linux.
 | 
 | TIA
