Just use the Netscape roaming profiles.  You store everything on a server
running apache + mod_roaming (or an LDAP server, if you have one handy), and
then you can probably get your mail from any netscape 4.x on any platform.
I only use it for bookmarks (I prefer to use a *real* MUA ;-) but I think
it'll do your address books, mail folders, etc. as well.

One of the many reasons I don't use Mozilla yet is because this feature
hasn't been implemented for it yet....

later,
