I don't impress anybody when they come around asking me for something... or giving me something... and I say "Hang on a few minutes, while I boot into Windows". Or, I'll *be* in Windows and I have to reboot into Linux to get at my mail. I can use Outlook to look at recent messages, but I have it set to just look, and not to move messages from the server. KMail is the app that now captures my mail from the server, so if I want to look at messages from a few hours ago, or yesterday, I need to be back in Linux, since Windows can't read my Linux partition.
It is possible to share the same mail folders between windows and linux, using netscape or mozilla. If you don't like mozilla, kmail can read netscape folders as they are, and viceversa.
Or you could use Eudora for reading mail in windows. It stores its folders in the standard unix mailbox format. Back when I switched to running SuSE full time, I just copied the files from Eudora's folder on the windows partition to ~/Mail and Pine saw my mail at once.

Then why isn't there a Eudora version for Linux, or am I just not with it? That would help me move to Linux full time. (I'm writing from MSW's Eudora.) --doug
