Not at all. However I make the constant mistake of installing Kubuntu
for friends and neighbours so I support over 20 computers on a regular
basis (which is easier than supporting 3 Windows machines, no
kidding). With the exception of myself and one neighbour who uses a
local email client (Outlook on her Windows laptop) every single one of
them uses web-based mail. Some don't even know that there even exist
local clients, and are surprised to see me check mail in Tbird.
