I tried ies4linux.  It fools Lotus Domino, just enough to get in.  I can 
see the email again.  It is clunky and slowish, but it works well 
enough.  Thanks to everyone who suggested it.

As an extra bonus I was treated to a classic "I'm sorry but we need to 
shutdown Internet Explorer" window already!  Back to the old days!  What 
a treat!

Great!  I can work again ;)
