3) Obviously I've collected mail - I'm using Outlook. Can I convert this when I go back to Linux? Oh I miss Mutt. <snip>
This is doable, but only in a roundabout way that i know of.
Using Outlook Express, import your Outlook emails, contacts, etc. Then using netscape on windows import the outlook express database, then, in netscape in linux, import the netscape directory.
From netscape under linux, you can then import the mails into other clients quite easily (I highly recommend the latest Evolution from www.ximian.com)
My recommendation would be to use KMail on Linux... you only need to import your Outlook mails to Outlook Express 5 (or 4). Store the .dbx-files somewhere and copy them to your Linux machine... then use Kmail-Import on the folder where you put the .dbx-files and you'll have all your folders with all the mails in KMail. Really fast and easy. I use this frequently when I'm forced to work on win for a while... when I come back, I simply copy the dbx-files and have everything in my linux environment...
