a few more early setup questions:

1) most importantly, are there any good FAQ-ish websites for plan9?
   (besides the canonical FAQ, that is?).  I would be happy not to
   clutter the list with questions if I already had the answers. :)

2) setting up client access for pop3 and nntp?  I checked the mail(1)
   manpage, but it didn't want to give up its secrets.  (that is, I have
   a remote pop3 account and would like to be able to download its
   messages to my PC while in plan9.)

3) people have remarked on the list about staying in plan9 all the time
   except when they need to access the web; besides the above and what
   is available in the distro, does anyone have helpful suggestions
   regarding things like outside software to download to make full-time
   plan9 use a reality?

answers to any of the above in the form of documentation pointers would
be as welcome as straight answers.

thanks in advance.
