The first big question is what program do you use to read your mail? Second is
where does that program store your mail? Third, what are the settings for
that program? Fourth, are you planning on using the same e-mail reading
program?
One issue you may have to face is how is your disk partitioned? Is /home on a
separate partition? (that really makes life easy. If it isn't, you will find
out why)
