Wow.
I do not follow that logic AT ALL.
But that's ok.
I think he is absolutely right and I have done the same.
I have tried all the leading webmail systems and have been doing so
since Hotmail launched in, what, 1996 or so?
I use webmail with an IMAP server that polls my 4 or 5 various POP3
accounts and collects all mail in a single inbox for spam-filtering
followed by application of my sorting rules. I then access this via a
web page, a mobile web page, a specific client app, or an ordinary
email MUA, as is most appropriate for the platform I am using at that
time. I access or have accessed my mail from the following platforms
on a regular basis:
Symbian
Android
iOS
Mac OS X
Windows XP
Windows Vista
Windows 7
Linux, various distros
I use half a dozen of that list virtually on a daily basis, some
online, some offline.
Can you suggest any /other/ way of accessing a filtered, sorted,
single global email inbox /other than/ using webmail?
If I do use webmail, it is a considerable advantage if there is an
optimised local client for it on my lower-end or small-screen devices.
Gmail provides this too, FOC.
If you can come up with /any/ credible alternative, I'd be interested.
