The basic concept is sending and receiving email. And yes, nowadays
AJAX browser clients can do that as well as any local client like
Eudora.

Now, when you start talking about specific services such as gmail,
it's almost a different subject, because it does some things Eudora
can't do easily - like store all your stuff in the cloud. OTOH, gmail
still won't detach and delete attachments.

Cloud storage itself is a different subject. Recently a court ordered
Google to pull the plug on a gmail account (apparently only because
the guy ignored his spam), and this means the account holder suddenly
has no/limited access to his stored emails (depending on his offline
settings). Of course, if you're using IMAP and Eudora and the same
thing happened to you, you would be in the same situation.
