I think you are going to want local search to work - and if everything
is stored server-side you wouldn't lose anything by starting over.

I like lots of pixels in front of me so I park my laptop beside the
desktop and run synergy on both to share the desktop keyboard/mouse
and get cut/paste across them.  Now my desktop is also windows but
normally running NX to a server's freenx session so it might as well
be linux - and in the past I've done the same with a linux desktop.

And actually, the webmail interface on current exchange servers isn't
that bad either.
