Just by watching the traffic and ports you should be able to discern
what is going on. With the system at a standstill, set the logging
options - and watch - for a while - if you've only got email being
fetched and the likes, you'll be able to discern from the traffic - via
the IP's and the interface they're operating on - just what is what...

TCP ports 25 and 110 - mail....port 80 is http...and etc...

Dear Sir, I am firmly opposed to the spread of microchips either to the
home or to the office, We have more than enough of them foisted upon us
in public places. They are a disgusting Americanism, and can only result
in the farmers being forced to grow smaller potatoes, which in turn will
cause massive un- employment in the already severely depressed
agricultural industry. Yours faithfully, Capt. Quinton D'Arcy, J.P.
