As part of the estimated 0.03% of people using a v2 browser, I actually agree with you
for the most part. I don't think that IMail should ensure compatibility with v3
browsers. However, I do think that people offering free web E-mail (as opposed to
ISPs offering it as part of their services, or companies offering it to employees)
should at least consider v3 compatibility to reach a slightly wider audience.
A big factor is that the newer browsers have newer -- and useable --features. The one
I designed here only works with IE5, and looks a lot more like an E-mail client than a
bunch of web pages. Of course, as a corporation, we can dictate what browsers people
need to use.
