Get a real job and suddenly things like Outlook or TB make a lot of sense. Webmail is ultimately overly limiting compared to a native client for many common work-related use cases. Not to mention, your phone email app is an email client.&lt;p&gt;I like to think of myself as being minimalist and flexible in some ways, but if I started a company tomorrow I could see myself springing for Outlook running the front end for a postfix&amp;#x2F;dovecot server just for the convenience.</text><parent_chain><item><author>elipsey</author><text>My CS instructor once asked everyone in the class to &amp;quot;raise you hand if you still use an email client.&amp;quot; My hand was the only one that went up, and a couple of people laughed and said &amp;quot;really?&amp;quot;&lt;p&gt;I think that was almost 10 years ago.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Thunderbird’s Future Home</title><url>https://blog.mozilla.org/thunderbird/2017/05/thunderbirds-future-home/</url></story>
