The thing is: the webmail addon does work as a translator between 
thunderbird and the webmail-server, as it reads and translates the 
webpage in HTML and gets the info to the otherside in POP or IMAP format

It is even possible to get another mail program to access the webmail 
when they access the portnumber, (but only as thunderbird is running)


The only drawback is that when the website changes its layout, the addon 
cannot understand anymore, and will fail until it gets updated
