Here is something you might try. Make a directory in your home directory
called nsmail copy the mail from Windows to nsmail. I personally prefer
Netscape, but I also have Mozilla. Mozilla always checks my nsmail
directory and imports whatever is in it. I don't know where that Mozilla
stores the mail, but if you do, it might work if you copy the Windows
mail directory there.
