K-Mail that is part of the KDE desk top works well and sets up very similar to Netscape Mail

I have an opportunity to teach a total beginner (83 years old) how to use a computer. I am goiing to set her up on an old box of mine running RedHat 7.1. I want to go real slow with her and add programs one by one. The first thing she wants to do is surf the net, second send and recieve email and third do word processing.

I plan on using the KDE desktop,  Koquerer as a browser, and Star office for word processing. For email, I think I'll use a browser based email such as yahoo mail.

Has anyone else worked with a total begnner before? Any suggestions? 

Charlie
