the thing is: If it is not simple, it is not email.
so, don't even try to think of a model that is not simple for users.
also, do not try to implement 70 schemes. find out one that is usable
and implement it. all the rest is of only of interest to theoriticians.
in the present case, it is no surprise that only imap and http are
candidates. smtp is usable, but it requires a lot of work (one thing is
how to make sure only the right user deletes/releases his message. this
isn't that simple).
