I didn't mean to start some sort of email war. Sorry, but POP and IMAP are yesterday's news. My grandfather's email. An email client that can't work in any browser via AJAX and can't store my stuff in the cloud just isn't worth consideration in 2009. Except perhaps in a historical perspective; I still have a few years of email stored from Thunderbird and Eudora before that.
AJAX is a tool to create an online interface for POP and IMAP. It isn't an email protocol. Underneath you still have POP or IMAP. Any IMAP client can store email in the "cloud" and download copies to keep locally.
Tell grandpa his email client is just fine. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
