The provider for one of my numerous email accounts is trying to transition people over to a new webmail client - Roundcube [roundcube.net].
In general, I don't have a problem with it, and it is an improvement over whatever was available before. But there are some peculiarities. One is that the search field looks suspiciously like Spotlight in Apple's OS X:
That is obviously a total ripoff. At least Firefox makes an attempt to cover up that they are ripping the idea off.
One of the major dealbreakers for other people is that you can't highlight and select text if you are using Internet Explorer. I have no idea why that is, but I have tried it using two different versions of IE, and when I try to select text, all of the text on the page ends up getting selected. Selecting text is no problem when using Firefox -- but there are some places, like work, where I have no choice but to use IE.
You have no idea how much you copy and paste text into and out of email until you can't do it anymore.
