Nope. Actually, nothing does except Outlook. The .pst file format is, of course, proprietary and so reverse engineering is not an option. Otherwise, someone would definitely have done it by now. However, there are a few tools that have been recommended on this list (search the archives) for migration away from Outlook, a couple of which I have used myself. The main one is: http://www.active-com.de/out2unix/ It's no longer maintained, but the last version is there and it's works fairly well. > 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. You can have two partnerships: one to sync with Outlook on Windows, and another to sync with Evolution using MultiSync (http://multisync.sourceforge.net) + SynCE under Linux (SynCE also has some rudimentary support for KDE apps, but it's not reliable yet). But set your expectations now: some e-mails/attachments may not export perfectly or at all during migration. And synchronization using SynCE is not perfect either; it's getting better, but it's not reliable yet. My advice is to pick one platform and stick with it. Personally, I don't sync my Pocket PC at all anymore (I don't use Outlook or Evolution) and instead I just do weekly Full Backups using ActiveSync under Windows. If you need your Pocket PC information to be reliable, sticking with Windows is your only bet (ActiveSync is hardly reliable, though, in my experience).
