I found this... http://www.littlemachines.com/ It is a $10 program which converts PST's into mbox format, but as you say you can do that with Mozilla. You *could* try saving each individual mail as a file (.eml format?) although I'm not sure if you could do them in bulk, it's not ideal though. I'd suggest also giving Outport a try, you haven't got much to loose. If all else fails, depending on which version of Outlook it is, you could try running it under either Wine or CrossOver Office.
