I remember reading a HOWTO on the Linux Documentation Project site
(tldp.org) about another way to do this, that might be better. If you
set up a temporary IMAP server you can use that as an intermediary
between Outlook and whatever other format you want to convert things to.

Personally I'm a little skeptical of the tools that try to read MS
formats.
