OT: CrossPlatform email client?

[Kreg Steppe]

I dont know about your ISP or where ever you are getting your mail.. but 
what I do, I use Mozilla on Linux and Winders.
I also use IMAP instead of POP to get mail. IMAP == the mail stays on 
the server. Some ISPs may not offer IMAP. If not... make an IMAP server 
for yourself, and fetchmail to bring the mail to it. Then set your email 
clients to talk to it.

I dont know of a good way to share message stores between local 
installations like you are talking about.
