I'm sorry, but it's just that to me asking "Why doesn't my browser work with
my e-mail provider?" is a bit like asking "Why doesn't my cow lay eggs?" ;-)
It's not what it is designed for. :-)

That said, of course there are reasons for webmail to exist, it wouldn't
exist otherwise. ;-) But still, the option to use KMail with IMAP should at
least be considered, especially as IMAP doesn't preclude using the webmail
on machines on which you don't have access to KMail.

I personally admit I use my Gmail with an IMAP client. Thunderbird is what I used to use, but I have been running KMail for the last fortnight. I've used Evolution and I think it probably has the edge on KMail, but thats just my personal opinion.

I will say though, I don't think theres anything wrong with using Gmail in a browser. It offers a great user experience, better than any other webmail. If you're not a fan of AJAX technology, you can roll it back to the legacy HTML version :)
