I have used various clients including thunderbird and each has its
good and bad features and every user of a client has their views about
each client.  I started using GMail because I was in the process of
moving hosts where I normally receive mail and didn't want to miss the
list mail.  However, I've learned to appreciate the mail client GMail
gives and I especially like its SPAM filtering.  I've seen a few
misses both positive and negative but only a very few.
