Even if Moz.mailnews.Networking:IMAP isn't good enough for your situation (and I'll admit that having root on the IMAP server does cover a multitude of sins :-) ), I'd be very, very, very reluctant to run either OE or Outlook itself, simply because its security has such a completely crappy record to date.

I'd happily SSH to someplace where I could run Pine or Mutt rather than worry about what Outlook was doing behind my back.
