Yep. And I forgot the part about being able to download all the email to the computer, sign off, read while off-line, compose replies, sign back on, and upload the replies. Very important where internet is dicey or having to pay for use. (Good example is while on a cruise. Internet rates are $0.75/minute and verrrry slow. Or you could get cheaper rates by buying packages which reduce the rates to as low as $0.40/minute but doesn't make it any faster.)
