I have a Gmail, Yahoo, the one I answered this with, and four other addresses.  
What I use for all is Kmail.  It downloads from all those servers 
automatically but I DO wish Kmail would pick the email address people wrote 
to me with as the from address as I always seem to forget to change my 
address (like for instance this maillist, if I answer it from my default, I 
get a complaint about not being able to deliver my email as I am not 
subscribed.  I then have to change my from address to the address subscribed 
and resend.  just a minor annoyance I know but one which takes extra time!)  
I have never used a web based mailer all the way back to my C=64 days.  Until 
recently, all messages were answered offline as I had dial-up.  They were 
then batch mailed whenever I went online, ...about once a day.
