The only perfect way of moving your Outlook Express 6 mailboxes to anything else is with an IMAP server. Fortunately this is a fairly simple process because you can run a personal IMAP server on Red Hat fairly easily.

Procedure:
1) Install the "imap" package which contains POP and IMAP servers.
2) Make sure xinetd is running.
3) chkconfig imap on
This will activate the IMAP server locally.
4) Create another local account, perhaps "tempuser".
5) Set Outlook Express 6 to connect to this IMAP server. After you are connected create a few IMAP folders matching your Outlook Express folder names and copy all your mail to these folders.
6) Connect to this IMAP server from Mozilla and copy everything to local folders.

Simple? If you need help with any step mentioned here, please ask the list again.
