Many Linux users are Dual booters, they sometime use windows and sometimes Linux. One 
problem with this is that the mail you have fetched in windows is not available in 
Linux and vice versa.

One solution to this is to create a utility that evolution calls upon start and exit. 
On start to fetch all new items in windows (outlook/outlook express) mailbox and 
insert them into proper places in evolutions mailbox, and on exit to copy all new 
items in evolutions mailbox to windows.

If this is not possible, another solution is to do a windows port of evolution. This 
would make it possible to have the evolution on the Linux partition to use the mailbox 
of the evolution on the windows partition and the problem is solved nicely.

How hard is it to do such port ? I understand thatn Gnome2.0 shall be multi platform. 
Will that make porting linux programs like evolution easier ?
There are already ports of gnumeric and the gimp.
