getting started with debian

Hi,

I think I made a mistake with my debian install.

When I got the point of choosing packages, I selected the customise 
option where I think I should have gone for desktop machine.

I do not think anything was installed as I was a bit baffled with the 
info.

So, should I now start again and reinstall or try and get some 
packages with apt?

Also, was not sure what I should have done with the mail choice that 
followed.

I get mail currently via pop and send with smtp.  I usean adsl rooter 
connected to the network card which I believe the install detected.

I would now like to try some simple tasks like email to get used to 
speakup and the directory and file structure of debian.

A bit of help on this would be good.

Many thanks.


Keith
