There are other options since you abhor Thunderbird. In your case,
downloading email over night when the park wifi demand is low is an
option. Using alternate networks (phone/tablet) is another option.
ALL my email accounts are IMAP, so all my devices are sync'ed upon
network connection. This includes GMAIL, which has the best spam
filtering I've seen. I do not care for web interfaces as a general
rule, I prefer an email client.
I use my phone/tablet for email extensively when traveling so the laptop
is only needed when there is sufficient bandwidth to sync it. I can
also (since it's stored locally) catch up on email, offline, also handy
when traveling.
One can filter/sort according to TO: address, topic and similar so mass
deletions are simple. I find the digest format to be more tedious but
each to their own. It's not worth extensive discussion here (Ford!
Dodge! Chevy! BMW! Microsloth!).
BUT: regardless of which method(s) you choose, PLEASE trim your response
to the least amount of cruft. It's polite, it's faster to read and for
those that still have data caps (VERY common in many areas), it matters.

Finally weaned my wife off Thunderbird and moved to Gmail, and she now
does her admittedly simple email stuff on her smartphone with Gmail's
app. No more dragging the laptop along on trips and trying to get
connectivity on the RV park's overloaded wireless connection.
