greetings to the list,

i saw ben at the hosstrader show in rochester this weekend and he got my
intrest sparked again in using linux as a desktop OS.  i was/am currently using
win2000.  ( no comments please :-) )  i just have a few questions.

I installed redhat 6.0 nand then installed helix gnome.  everything is working
ok - kind of.  

problem 1
in win2k i use eudora pro.  on freshmeat there are several GUI mail clients for
gnome, however none of them support pop3 mail!  when i try to check my mail it
gives me " Feature not yet implemented".    does anyone know of a good pop3 GUI
mail client for gnome?  i have tried balsa, gnomail, and eucalyptus.    they all
have problems with pop3 mail.

problem 2
ben said something about running the xserver as root.  i have always run it as
a user.  if i was to run x as root and then connect to it. how would i do that?
 anyone know what i'm talking about?

thats all the problems for now....other than the above i really enjoy
linux....i may still have to use win2k for my high end graphics though....just
because all my files are PSD's.  thanks for your help!
