Eudora simply connects and then disconnects.
Maybe this is just a Mac thing, but my email client does not have to
be online when I'm reading and responding to email. While it is online
it synchs a local copy of my emails from the primary copy stored in
the cloud. I can read these emails and respond offline. Next time I am
online it will again sync up with the cloud.
This seems to me to be the best of all worlds. I have 3 computers
where I typically get my email and while traveling I use webmail. I
can sit down at any of these 3 computers and always find my email
identically arranged. I have rule sets on my main office computer,
which I usually leave on all the time. It sorts incoming mail into
folders and I can access them so arranged from any other computer.
