Hmmm. First thing that comes to mind is Netscape Messenger, maybe. I know Navigator uses a common bookmark format, so, maybe E-mails too? You could try it, if you like Messenger. Come to think of it, the bookmark thing was impractical, because I could symlink the Linux bookmark file over to Windows', but Navigator would write any changes to a new file on the Linux partitition. You may run into the same difficulty with E-mail, even if the formats are compatible.
