Starting with Linux

Simple. I use which ever email client happens to be at hand at the time.
At this current time I happened to be working in windows so I used Outlook
Express. I see no urgent need to restart my computer to go in to Linux, work
on my mail, and then restart back in to Windows to finish some .net projects
I am working on.
Contrary to current belief I use both, and it all depends on what I am doing
and where I am at the time.
