and email is all webmail these days


That's incredible to me, but yes, it's largely true. It's hard for me
understand why anyone would prefer webmail to even the poorest e-mail
client.

I once set up an internet connection for a friend, and the ISP only gave
instructions for webmail. This was apparently because the ISP inserted
their spam in every message sent that way.

This person would have been an involuntary spammer for years if I hadn't
tried some server names and found their ISP supported POP3 as well as
webmail (they just hid that fact).

It's not about PREFERRING webmail, but about being unwilling to try
anything else.
