Hi,
My neighbour is a 94 yo (that is not a mistake!) woman who has never
used computers before but wants to have email and web browsing for some
courses that she is taking.

I have an old HP 333mhz machine that I am going to set up for her.
Trouble is, a full RH installation is pretty sluggish on it. I thought I
would skip Gnome and go for Icewm or Windowmaker, use Galeon as the web
browser. What would be a decent simple graphical mail client? Evolution
seems sluggish on the machine as well as being serious overkill.

Any suggestions much appreciated. And we might set a world record for
the oldest first time Linux user!

Cheers,
Alan
