After furious head scratching, asked:

| I am trying to save all my email messages because I want to try to
| install linux. One might think there was some way to export your email
| file to some standard format, but alas It seems I can only export to
| Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft Exchange from Outlook Express 6. Where
| is the mail file located ? maybe I can decipher most of it with a perl
| script or something if there is no other means. Perhaps a linux
| program like one in open office can read it ?
