If it uses "MailDB" then it will work, but from what you say I would guess it
doesn't. If it uses the Palm Mail format then it would be easy enough for an
app to open "EMailDB" or whatever instead.

If it uses its own special Mail format then someone would have to add support
to pilot-link for it. Right now apps like pilot-mailsync use functions like
unpack_MailSyncPref and unpack_MailSignaturePref to do their work.
Corresponding functions, or additional functionality to those functions, would
need to be implemented in pilot-link.
