I concur. Knowing Paul Vigay well here in Portsmouth he was fanatical about
cyber safety & always preferred downloading his mail to his machine(s) rather
than using the web.
I use Pluto on a RiscPC at home & Virtual Acorn when I'm away & that includes
being on the other side of the world. When in foreign parts I log into
webmail once so they know where I genuinely am & stop pestering me about
safety then it's back to Pluto & Netfetch. I only check my accounts on the
web now & again to check they haven't put something I really needed in the
junk folder. I use PoP3 & set Netfetch to delete messages from the server
after downloading. If you want a belt & braces approach you can leave them on
the web to be reviewed later or downloaded to another device. What's not to
like.
