Can use gnuplot to make a plot. First make a plot file (iperf.p) with the commands want:

set title "Iperf Tests"
set xlabel "Time (seconds)"
set ylabel "Mbps"
plot \
"iperf.dat" using 1:2 title 'uct3-edge2' with lines, \
"iperf.dat" u 1:3 t 'uct3-edge3' w lines, \
"iperf.dat" u 1:4 t 'uct3-edge4' w lines, \
"iperf.dat" u 1:5 t 'uct3-edge5' w lines, \
"iperf.dat" u 1:6 t 'uct3-edge6' w lines, \
"iperf.dat" u 1:7 t 'uct3-edge7' w lines

Start gnuplot and load the plotfile.

Sometimes firefox or thunderbird seems to lose profiles for no reason. This can sometimes be fixed with a reboot. Or, look in the profile home for a file called prefs-1.js and prefs.js. Usually, the prefs-1.js is an older file and prefs.js is very new. Delete prefs.js and rename prefs-1.js to see if that fixes the problem.
