Re:Maybe if they offered IMAP (Score 1)

I agree that gmail has room to grow. It doens't offer true IMAP but what it does have works just like it. After my mail is popped a copy is saved in my archived mail. I have a copy saved on gmail, and I can delete the one in Thunderbird. If I send a message from gmail.com. Later in tb I can see that I sent it. With this in mind, I see the lack of "true" imap is very minor.
