Now the questions;
What security precautions should I be taking now I can connect to the internet? Can anyone recommend some useful resources I should study? Any basic initial measures I should take?
Depending on your kernel.. take a look at ipchain (for 2.2.x kernel) or iptables (for 2.4.x kernels)
Is it worth reviewing the PPP and IP setups with a view to optimising the modem performance? or are any improvements likely to be marginal?
I can't see how you can actually improve the modem performance?
Can anyone recommend some mail clients that work with Gnome? There seem to be loads on Sourceforge and Freshmeat. Some guidance with narrowing down the list would be most helpful.
Evolution, slypheed.. but then try mutt (but it is console only but it's great to use)
I'd also like to migrate my existing M$ Outlook mailbox over to the new client. Has anyone ever done this? Is it possible?
Check google groups about this... a lot of people did this I believe.
