Note I said "normally" not a good idea.  There are exceptions, of
course, but just because it's in the home doesn't automatically make it
a good one.  e.g. You have guests, they turn on the box, and aren't
stopped from being able to read/delete you mail, or otherwise make a
nuisance of themselves.

It's not something that I'd do, unless I was absolutely certain nobody
could muck about with the box.

You'll probably, also, find a few preset items, in there, that are a
waste of your time, and you can disable them from starting.  I did that
with bluetooth things, for example.

Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.  Today, it's FC7.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
