This is a guess, since I don't use Mozilla for mail but:

~/.mozilla/Default User/g37e59u6.slt/Mail/172.20.6.193/*
                  [1]     [2]  			[3]   [4]
    
[1] Is the profile you use for mozilla, or "Default User" would be the
default.
[2] From my experience with Mozilla this seems to be random.
[3] This is the pop server name
[4] Files named: Drafts  Inbox  Sent  Templates  Trash, which I'm
guessing are the folders themselves.


You should find a similair structure on Windows, (%USERPROFILE% on
98/95/ME would be c:\windows)

%USERPROFILE\Application Data\Mozilla\profiles\....... and then this
should start to tie in with the same folder structure as above.

You should be able to create a new account on Mozilla (Linux) and then
copy the relevant files.... Although it might not work!
