I am in the process of migrating from Windows to Debian and am gradually
setting up all the bits I'm going to need in order to dump Windows
entirely. I've hit a stumbling block with my email archives - I've been
using Microsoft Outlook Express 5. It saves mailbox files in a weird
format that even Word can't read, and it can't export to anything useful.
It can save individual files as plain text, but since I have many hundreds
of them, I'd rather not do that.
Does anyone know, is there a utility for converting OE5 files to something
Linux can read? Or a way of automating the coversion to text of hundreds
of old messages? I know I brought this problem on myself but please help.
