Is it possible to share mailboxes between two different mailreaders? I
use netscape to read my mail in Win95 and want access to these mailboxes
in Linux. I tried settting up netscape in Linux which works fine, but
refuses to see the mailboxes on the dos disk, although it can see the
directory fine and will write its own mailboxes there. I'd rather use a
different mailreader (exhm?) in Linux, but want access to these
mailboxes. 

So can I get netscape (Linux) or a different mailreader to recognize
these mailboxes?

Before anyone asks I need to use Win95 for writing my dissertation, and
do  some cut and paste between my dissertation and email, hence the use
of netscape.

Thanks,
Nick
