PMMail 98 and PMMail/2 both started with a common code base, and have
both been designed to access the files the same way. The data
structures are identical, and the data files are not implementation
dependent. They both use a special character to separate data fields
in the database files so they are not word-size dependent.
To set this up you first need to install either version on a common
file system. Then boot into the other OS and install the appropriate
version, into the same place. It helps (may even be necessary) for the
filesystem to have the same drive letter on both OS's.
