Actually it sounds like Easy Office 2001 is the one crimping your
conversion. There are plenty of Linux tools that will do what Adobe
Photoshop does, if it doesn't run in the emulators. Same for PDF file
creation and manipulation.
The Netscape mail files will convert over pretty easily. I've done that
several times myself for various people.
However, if "Easy Office 2001" is your choice for spreadsheet and word
processing files, then talk to the people at
www.e-press.com. And if you
only have the free version, then I wouldn't expect too much in the way of
support.
Just my $0.02...
