Sharing Thunderbird Mails Between Linux and Windows

[Javier Perez]

I do not know if this qualifies as an option, but I use a second server with
IMAP.
All my mail goes there and I set thunderbird from either windows or linux
to use that server as the mail source and to send everything through it.

One advantage is that it gets all my mail during the day and does the spam
filtering without occupying my main machine. Maybe it's overkill, but then
again, if Ihave a spare server around, why not use it?
