There's a version of communicator for linux someplace, but I'm still using 3.01 ... communicator is kinda bloated, and I really only want it for the browser; I don't care about the mail interfaces, etc. ... A word about the the "netscape debian package" -- redistribution terms on netscape are screwy, so the package you found requires you to first download the proper binary release .tar.gz file from ftp.netscape.com, and the package installs it for you. I beleive that there is a communicator installer-package probably in unstable. If you want a simple, powerful email/news client, I recommend pine. It's nonfree because you can't redistribute it for profit, but works good, and runs really well in an xterm ... I use it because it's what we use at school, and I can run it without X across a dialup link when I have to.
