Hi.  I've never used a Web-based email account like gmail/hotmail/yahoo.

Is it possible to configure an email program like Thunderbird (or <gasp> 
Lookout Express) to read the email into my computer just like it works 
when I get email from my regular ISP?

Hopefully this won't start a flame war, etc., but aside from not really 
wanting to patronize M$ by using hotmail, are some web based email 
systems better than others?  I know a lot of people seem to like gmail.

Joe
