When you thing about it: A webmail client and the different IMAP

use a "real" IMAP client. But IMHO webmail is a useful solution, when you are on vacation or
business travel and want to acces your email. And together with one time passwords the security
risk is not too high, so you can use it.

This has also been in my TODO for years:

 - support read-only logins. user could with alternative password  

get only read-access to mails so mails could be read relatively safely
with untrusted computers. Maybe always send [ALERT] about the previous read-only login time with IP?
