Gmail also allows for a POP3 interface. I'd originally used the suggested IMAP interface and then had a bit of a net outage. I discovered that I had no copies of my inbox messages--apparently, they resided on Google's servers. So I went to the POP interface, where the message is deleted from the server when I receive it. Otherwise, for me, it's been a progression of email clients. elm, pine, eudora, Courier, Pegasus and finally Thunderbird, which has worked passably well to date. --Chuck
