Does evolution have integration with Outlooks .pst file?  I will be
maintaining a windows box and will likely be using outlook on it as I am
hoping to begin using my WinCE unit again. and it requires outlook to sync.

Also wondering hwo good the connection is with outlook express files and
evolution.  I know it can import the databses, but is it possible to have an
application create an outlook express file and have that file read through
evolution?  This is a long term project and more of a "I DID IT!" sort of
thing.
