And presumably you're experienced enough to run Mutt. Give OP some
time...
Well, actually, I read mail on my Mac, with SeaMonkey, but that's
another story. I keep a copy of Alpine on the server for those times
I'm on the road at locations that block IMAP (of course some of those
tend to block ssh as well; I've taken to tethering through my Blackberry
when on the road).
I've been running headless Debian servers for years, never used
anything but a command line to manage them.
I guess I could run X-Windows remotely, but never really saw a need
to - ssh to a command prompt is just fine.
You're right. Keep it X-less.
Unless you've got an Oracle database. In which case you *must*
install X. Grrrr.
Never did have to run Oracle. At work, we run Oracle on customer
servers, but my stuff has always been MySQL.
Cheers,
Miles
