I didn't know Opera had a mail client.

I will inquire about POP3.  That would be ideal.  I've been
meaning to try this alternate Xserver called xserver-3dlabs, 
to see if it supports my video card.  (If you remember my post 
about a cheap video card from a few weeks ago, the idea was 
canned by my boss -- this company keeps a database of the 
hardware configuration in each machine and so I was discouraged 
from doing anything like that.)
