I'm doing the same thing. I bought a barebones system from tigerdirect, and
run Gentoo + imap + fetchmail + squirrelmail. My wife can check mail from her
Windows XP box, I can check it from KMail, Evolution, Thunderbird, mutt, etc.
There's a little setup involved, but worth the effort IMO.

Also a good way to go. At www.clarkconnect.org you can find a download which
will turn a spare PC into a gateway/web server/mail server and automatically
provide you with IMAP, POP3 and Webmail (Squirrelmail) if you don't fancy
doing the set up work yourself.

Haven't found a way to do that with Kmail (which I agree is a comfortable mail
client) -- kmail does allow you to store your mail in mbox or dir format, so
maybe something is possible.

I have a dual setup with Gentoo Linux and MS Win XP. My wife uses Win XP

I guess, you will need to create a fat32 partition for data exchange and use
Mozilla email client.
Keep your emails on the fat32 partition.
I am assuming that LINUX and windows both can write on that partition.
let me know, if it works.

With a similar set up, I have a VFAT/FAT32 partition for mail which is
accessible from both WinXP and Gentoo. I use Opera and its M2 mail client as
this means I have exactly the same functionality on both operating systems
and no worries about mailbox format.
