One of the main (in my books) advantages of gmail is that it allows the
user to post mail that is not traceable back to his/her IP address (eg:
posting on anti-spam fora without inviting revenge attacks from disgruntled
spammers), but only if the webmail interface is used. If you use gmail with
a regular MUA, the mail is traceable back to your IP.
