Can I use WebMail and my normal email software?
WebMail will work fine on its own or in conjunction with most other email clients, such as Microsoft Outlook Express. However, it is important to understand that most email clients are configured to use the POP protocol, where as WebMail used the IMAP protocol. If you try to check your mail with two clients at the same time (i.e. WebMail and Microsoft Outlook Express) you run the risk of corrupting your mail file. You can avoid this problem by changing you email client software to use the IMAP protocol. FRII Customer Support strongly recommends this option because it will prevent any possible problems between the two different protocols. If you have multiple clients (say Outlook at home and WebMail on your laptop) make sure that only one is ever active at a given time.
