The above is confirmed by statistics which are collected by a company named Litmus Email Analytics, and they include not only eMail clients for desktop computers, as I did, but for mobile devices, too. I have no clue on which way they do collect this 1000 million of emails. Here is their top 10 list for Juni 2019, taken from https://emailclientmarketshare.com/ #01 Gmail 29% +0.45 #02 Apple iPhone 27% -0.62 #03 Outlook 9% +0.72 #04 Apple iPad 8% -0.43 #05 Apple Mail 7% -0.04 #06 Yahoo! Mail 6% -0.52 #07 Google Android 3% +0.17 #08 Outlook.com 2% -0.1 #09 Samsung Mail 1% -0.08 #10 Thunderbird 0% -0.01 (Sorry that this is not in a table, but copying into a table in TheBat! does not work; I would have to either fill each cell individually or create an XLS file and insert this). I have marked those for desktops with yellow background. This confirms which I had written before. Gmail (i.e. Google mail) is being used both on desktops and on mobile devices. Gmail is surpassed by Apple if we add the three versions for iPhone, iPad and desktop tallied separately by this Litmus company. If the widely used Thunderbird is counted on less than a half percent of emails checked by this Litmus company, TheBat! and even more those unknowns which Mr. Gleason misunderstands as "major player" are completely out of the picture.
