Ah, I see your point. But I have worked someplace that blocked any type of web-based email for fear a virus or worm could come into the organization that way. I also have to think that any company that is going to be watching email so closely is likely to be watching web traffic as well and going to a site that may look curious may raise the wrong kinds of questions.
