Users are not required to retrieve e-mail from specific computers that have been configured for them
POP3 or IMAP4 protocols are not required, which reduces server-side support
Because Web-based e-mail is not constrained by POP3 or IMAP4 protocols, a richer environment can be developed that extends beyond basic e-mail
