For news, use Pan. For mail, use Balsa or Evolution. Or you can use
Mozilla for both mail and news. I'm sure the applications are on the
CDs, but I don't really know suse.

Do you see any icons at all on the desktop? If not, try installing and
running Nautilus. Once Nautilus is running, right-click on the desktop
and select the floppy in the "Disks" submenu.
