It allows you to use Google Webmail for email using your own domain like .zw and look professional without putting a hole in your pocket. I recently stumbled upon a method to use free Gmail accounts and Postfix mail forwarding thus allowing you to use Gmail to freely host your own mail. Then there is the cost factor: we have about 10 employees in our organisation who use email and paying $50 a month to Google for email goes against my frugal nature and I don’t really have the time to spend messing with Postfix and Exim either I tend to avoid Sendmail like the plague it is. I miss all those awesome tools like sophisticated spam control as well as the aesthetics. Therefore ever since Google stopped freely hosting emails for other domains I had been forced to lead a difficult life.

Without being offensive I have to say that I find the Roundcube and SquirrelMail interfaces quite functional but rather unappealing.

Like all of my contemporaries I was brought up on the staple of Yahoo! mail and Gmail webmail services.
