The problem here is that users tend to use any random
web mail interface they stumble across all over the world,
including proprietary ones in foreign lands, cafe shops etc.
There is no way to assure that s user will ONLY use the one we
provide on our web server.
Now if you have an answer to that problem, we are in business!
