I am a newbie to Linux and so please pardon me if my questions are
ridiculously stupid/ignorant.

I am trying to set up the linux box to be my personal web/mail server.  I
only have a 33.6k connection to my ISP and therefore cannot keep it up all
the time.  My question is this : how can i set up my machine so that it
will download mail onto one place on my machine so that i am able to read
it offline, compose message offline and then send it out at regular
intervals.  I would also like to be able to set up my machine so that i can
host my own web pages and scripts so that i can learn perl and html better.

btw Does anyone know how to set arena or lynx so that it routes through a
proxy.

Any reply regarding the above issues are greatly appreciated..

(ps : i think people who use linux tend to be very helpful and nice ppl
(just my 2 cents worth)
