Favourite email client

[temi]

I started using a browser based email lately, I am gradually abandoning desktop based email as I find the browser based one more convinient.

What is your preferred way of reading your email: browser or desktop client?

I am using desktop based email.

As soon as Gmail appeared and I got an invitation, I stopped using desktop based e-mail apps.
I travel a lot, and I do my work on different computers so it's easier for me to have my mail accessed by a browser based client.

Browser-Based, but only if I can get Google Hosted to work for a domain. e.g. My Blog uses Google Hosted, works beautifully!

But Google hosted is now available at Google Apps I use it for www.haabaamail.com - Welcome to HaabaaMail, the FREE email service from Haabaa.com  and it works beutifully as well.

It has been erratic on a few occasions but their support seem to be pretty fast responding to support request.

It is a very easy question for me, Firefox for browser and thunderbird for the emails from the same family.

I agree. Thunderbird is a great e-mail client, but I have lost the habit of using a desktop based e-mail client.
