It is my understanding that Exchange is generally compatible with the IMAP protocols. Depending upon your linux implementation you could use a breadth of IMAP migration tools "out there" to migrate email and folders from one system to another.

Similarly, there are probably some utilities out there from Microsoft (for a fee) that would permit you to accept a file per linux user in a certain format for import. I haven't a clue, but it's a fairly common transformation between linux MTAs. My guess is that Microsoft has adopted something as a means to take away business from someone else's platform.

Now tell me again why you want to do this?
