Debian Users,
My favourite MUA has an implementation of POP3

So the end user need only use ip rather than ifconfig

What is recommended for converting a bitmap in pdf, into jpg or png?
xpdf.man remarks,
"Save as...
Save the current file via a file requester."

The interface from a Squeeze Linux router to
an ISP cable modem, configured with this line
in /etc/network/interfaces, has MTU = 1500.
