It's a standoff at the moment.

I've got a python program running on a Win95 machine in the
corner that grabs my mail via MAPI and forwards it using smtp
to my Linux machine.  Outgoing is via Exchange server's SMTP
(wth authentication).

The python program crashes every few days, and I restart it.
Not the best arrangement, but it works well enough that I
haven't pursued any other solution.
