Most if not all web-based mail clients use IMAP since a
web-based (i.e. browser-based) client can't store the
received mail on the local computer the way a
POP3-based email client does.
Besides, the whole reason for using a web-based client
is to be able to log in from various computers. Why
would you not want to store the mail back on the
server the way IMAP does. POP3 delivers the mail to
the client and then drops it.
