Then do not mix apples and apple juice, to keep apples OK. email is email, an email client is email client. But anyway, all this discussion is about nothing but personal preferences, therefore pointless and useless. -- Poutnik The best depends on how the best is defined.

Craig thinks he has a point, but it is as usual stupid. What is the best is on many NGs and web forums a question forbidden by rules. It is wise decision, as far as it is highly subjective and leads to flame wars. There is not best client, either client side SW, either server side web application. There are only clients, that fits his/yours/mine requirements, demands, needs and desires the best. As many such combinations, as many possible best solutions. Only a fool could say the best is what he thinks it is the best. -- Poutnik The best depends on how the best is defined.
