WooHoo!!! Found the elusive fast easy transfer--I simply copied the Microsoft User Data file over from my main system replacing the one on my PowerBook. I had not been retrieving email using OE on the PB, so it didn't obliterate anything I already had on there, but now, I *CAN* read all my archieved mail from the main system that I had fallen behind on.
Yes, it's fast, it's dirty, but IT WORKS! Thanks for the Identity file tip! Now come this weekend, I'll be poolside with my PowerBook 1400c/G3 hooked up to its solar panel, reading all my email in Palm Springs! I knew there had to be an easy way....Now I can relax & enjoy the 3-week vacation I'm starting tomorrow. Pass the sunscreen....
