I think the big advantage is off-line usage. If you are connected all the time and have dual-mode access for redundancy (say, a home internet/wifi connection, and a 4G aircard), and don't roam much, then a web-based mail client solves a lot of problems. But when internet access is spotty or unreliable, it's nice to have full access to your email offline. Fortunately, there are lots of options, both within the GUI with varying degrees of accessibility (Thunderbird, Kmail, Claws Mail, and Evolution come to mind) and within the terminal (mutt and alpine being the dominant players, but "alot" and mailx/heirloom mailx also come to mind as well as several available within emacs). -tim _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
