This has me thinking. I've wanted to change over to Netscape Navigator
completely for quite some time, but I have no idea how to "save" all my old
e-mails still in Outlook Express. Do you have any idea on how to "convert"
them from the M$ format to something NN understands?

Not sure. I have no idea how they are storing it for you. For me it was easy,
since I was using an Exchange server, I just used IMAP from Netscape to access
things.
You might want to see how to get at it.
Netscape is nice in that it uses the standard mailbox file format used by most
Unix programs. Both the Windows and Linux versions, so I can even use the same
exact files for folders when I'm in Windows or Linux.

If worse comes to worse you can foreward all of your past emails to your
self and retrieve them with Netscape there by creating a record of them
all. A bit tedious but I don't know enough about IE to be of much more
help than that. I do think that you will like Netscape once you have
made the conversion and get it set up the way you like it.
I am pretty sure that you can import your existing IE bookmark file into
Netscape though I haven't tried that either.

I meant importing. I have all my e-mails here, and they're long gone from my
server (I delete upon receiving). It's a POP3 server, so the IMAP stuff Jon
mentioned doesn't apply. Basically I wanted to changed to Netscape, and upon
writing here went to investigate. I found that you can import the e-mails
from NN to OE and viceversa, so I changed to NN (temporarily, as I don't
like it). I can't get the "You've got mail!" sound to go off, and every time
I click on a message it automatically marks it as read, providing no option
to turn this off. Also, if I recall correctly, from 4.5 or before when I did
use it, the binaries had to be downloaded each time (they wouldn't stay on
my HD), so animations and images would give me problems. :(
Does anyone know how to work around these inconveniences, or will I just
have to stick to OE, and thus still _need_ to have Windows on this box?

Thanks.
I just try to think to warn about the line wrap when I paste a text file and
post here even though I have line wrap set to 76 or 80. I can never be sure of
what someones going to see at the other end or if I did the copy wrong, so it
just makes sense to tell about it. One possible remedy is to maximize the
newsreader message windows.
I also try not to use any // (double forward slashes) with a word following
immediately having no space between the two. Maybe MS Outlook is the only
program that does the file://wrong thing, I don't know, but even with everything
set to not do html it does that.

I have line wrap set to around 100. I never have problems with wrapping
when posting highly indented Pov code.

In short, no. That's one good reason wy I left OE behind (beside
crashing often taking down a group index file with it, and the
inability to recover old info after a Windows reinstall). I had to
download 90 MB of newsgroups, thrice, and the fourth time I just got a
decent newsreader and mail client. I still have 90 MB of the stuff on
a CD comewhere but have not yet found a way to convert it.

When do you post highly indented POV code? What's your standard for
"highly indented" anyway? Two or more spaces? :)

These are my opinions. I do NOT speak for the POV-Team.

Generaly when I re-post code created by someone else. Obviously it is
over kill with my highly stylized indenting methods...
