I want a fat client. And I want a KDE/Qt GUI that integrates well with my 
KDE desktops. And I do not want to put it into my virtual server. Its a 
bit heavy weight just for personal use.

That said, actually I use it, at work. I have the web gui and I have KMail 
and sometimes I use the web client and something KMail. While the web 
client IMHO is really good KMail excels at mail editing, handling of 
quoting and quite some other stuff.

But enough of that, I just wanted to say that similar technologies work in 
practice already. And thus I am confident, that KDEPIM 2 will get there 
too. For some posters on this list it already works nicely as I read. And 
I am sure developers and testers will make it better and better and 
better.
