I will also show some of the specific features from Thunderbird which makes the day to day business u se easier. The software I propose as default is the one I found easiest to use and best in their functionality - this won't necessarily be true for your needs, thus you are welcome to try out the applications listed as alternatives. 1 Preliminary Note This tutorial is based on CentOS 7.0 desktop. I will first install the CentOS 7.0 Desktop.

I use 192.168.0.100 as my IP address in this tutorial and desktop1.example.com as the hostname. You can either use static or dynamic IP address depending upon your requirements.2 Installation Now we will install the CentOS 7.0 with Gnome-desktop.
