I believe that their only option is POP.  I highly suggest the
practice of using the competition's software for ideas.  Go set up a
hotmail account.  Go use hushmail.  Use TWIG, phpGroupWare.  Look at
what 'the other guys' are putting in for features.

Realize that there are a ton of people out there who just download
each of n apps, try them out, and make a decision as to which one they
will use.  Being able to be all things to all people would be a noble
goal.
