Hi Henry,

Just a suggestion....if you are used to getting your mail using outlook
express from your ISP's mail server then I can suggest you use Ximian
Evolution (a linux mail program for those addicted to outlook). Their
website is http://www.ximian.org or if you install redhat 7.3 it comes
included in that distribution (and is supported under most *nix's). You
can currently find it on the aarnet mirror
ftp://ftp.aarnet.edu.au/raid/2/ximian

The reason why I suggest this is that you can access your mail same as you
did with outlook in windows and forget about running something locally on
your machine, just set your smtp and pop/imap settings.

Hope that helps :)

Melinda
