mozilla ia better browser, and doesn't gobble memory and all that.  

I use the native port, but the drawback is that you can't use linux plugins.

HOWEVER,

it is a worse mail program; what I have now don't is switch to kmail for mail 
while using mozilla (mostly) to browse.  (Sometimes I use konquerer, but 
mostly I use mozilla.)

Konquerer and kmail are part of KDE.

Anyway, I recommand using mozilla for browsing and something else for reading 
mail and news.
