I can happily install Win95(the very first ones) plus Off97 (Word - main app) on it, with netscape and pegasus for some web and mail access. Sure, the performance won't be high, but it will work. No way you can get an X-Windows based office suite on that, and with p-200/32mb the difference in performance would be even more dramatic.
This is real, some schools _are_ that poorly equipped. I still have to setup such a system from time to time, and I work for an university.. (Bratislava, Slovakia, Eastern Europe).
While we have some 10-15% of such crappy machines and it's getting better all the time, I can imagine there are schools where such junk is 80-100% of their equippement.

Just append a '0' to the filenames starting with '9'
in your Maildir/new Maildir/cur directories, and it's fixed.
I'm going to put together a script to go over Maildirs and do it automagically.

Just imagine a 486-100, 16MB ram, 300MB disk.
