Outlook pst files in linux


I have been using Outlook for some years and have all my data in a PST file.

I also use outlook to keep my Smartphone synchronized (birthdays, meetings, etc).

I was wondering if there is a way to share the PST file with a Linux client. If it was possible, I wanted to have a dual boot in my home pc and have Outlook in Windows and another client (like Evolution) in Linux to share the same pst file.

Is it feasable?

Perhaps this other thread is a good place to start?

I don't believe it's possible to share a .pst other than between Outlook clients, but then you have to worry about permissions and possible data corruption. I found this gem tho from 2003:

Exporting your Outlook data to Evolution
