even with a client, one still gets crapped on by Google if using Gmail; I've been using a traditional client for years but certain new features in Gmail alter its behavior. (I am particularly not-fond of how they recently altered the "Important" tag, the jagoffs.) You *can*, if you switch to a traditional client, suck all your messages out of gmail for yourself, or at least keep ready access to them while switching everything you care about away from that account.
