I have a Gmail account and have it set up in Thunderbird along with my 
other accounts which use IMAP. I run my own mail server from my house 
(eightvirtues.com) for those. The Gmail account is old and I try not to 
use it much. Even if Gmail is an ideal solution, I'd like a more 
"universal" solution that isn't tied to one company's whims and IP. It 
does sound like Google has a handle on how things should be done; 
perhaps they could lead the charge to revolutionize email.
