Re: Mail folder sharing in Windoze & Linux



I use netscape mail in Windows and Linux, with a common mail directory
on the windows partition (which is mounted by fstab).  This seems to
work fine, and has the advantage of having the same MUA on both OS's,
although using NS for mail doesn't seem very Linux'y!

(OT, similarly, I have a single bookmarks file on both OS's, which is
very useful)

Probably not the best solution, but it's mine.
