This is a common problem for many of us. In my case, it is the frequent movements that I have out of base where I am forced to d/l my mail from friend's places and net-cafes ... which as of now is mainly M$ boxes. If your net-cafe had Win-9x, one of the easiest methods I follow is to d/l the mail in OE and take the whole file in a floppy. On reaching home I run "oe2mbx" on them to convert the file to mbox format, and read them at leisure off line using mutt.(I have not tried out oe2mbx on NT/ 2k OE files, so don't know). I am presently working on a floppy based distro for such jobs.
