PLEASE do not use your root account to send e-mail.  root should be
reserved for system administration and definitely not used for
day-to-day use.  This will help prevent the spread of nasty virii like
are prevalent in the Windows and Macintosh worlds where every user has
access to system files by default.  A non-root user on Linux will not
have access to install worms and virii in system files.
