Couple of questions

Hi Marti,

An initial google for "Gnome Mail readers" brought back Evolution, and
several articles on other mail clients for gnome.  The desktop
environment in Ubuntu is called gnome, so Googling for gnome +
whatever type of program you are looking for should find the name of
anything you are looking for.  I don't use gnome myself, but I am 99%
certain Evolution is already installed.  I can't help you with the
auto mount issue.

Good luck!
-Courtney
