OK, I've changed the pathnames for the Linux equivalents.

In Linux these can be found in ~/nsmail
(where ~ is your home directory)

Note the *.slt (the salt) comes after the userid and this path varies 
depending on what version of windows you're using e.g. on win2k it'll be:
c:\Documents and Settings\[USERNAME]\Application Data\Mozilla\... etc
and machines that store user settings on the server will differ from that :)

In Linux this is
~/.mozilla/[userid]/[salt]/Mail/[servername]

[userid] is usually default and [salt] is some random selection of text 
with the .slt extension. cd into each directory at a time and all will 
become apparent.
