Much of the time, I can't even see a cursor in this webmail interface, making it difficult to see where I am.
As webmail and other services doctor web addresses to track users' clicks, there is much room for bugs when it becomes so complicated even the webmaster messes it up. But I can still use nonweb mail clients such as msmtp (msmtp.sourceforge.net) and mpop (mpop.sourceforge.net) and a text editor such as vi (standard part of Unix and quasi-Unix OSes). That requires an installed OS on hard drive or other bootable readable-writable drive such as USB stick. I believe msmtp and mpop are supposed to be usable even on DOS (such as FreeDOS) and Windows, meaning it should work for ReactOS.
