GMail POP?

If it is because your replies would come from the new address you can set Gmail up to use whatever "From" address you want went replying (and can select on the fly as you do so).

I don't remember my full "reasoning", but it partly had to do with the lack of folders...but now I've figured out the mysterious secrets of labels, so my reasons are definitely thinning.

Yeah, I was originally thrown off by the lack of folders. But once I got the idea behind labels, and particularly the fact that you can apply more than one label (how many times I wished to put an email in two different folders), I am fully converted.

What was bugging me was that labled items remained in your inbox...until I learned that archiving them doesn't strip the labels. Huzzah.

Funny, I didn't even know Archive existed. I just have thousands of emails in my Inbox (but then they don't bother me so even knowing about it I probably won't use it).

Another great advantage of Gmail (and perhaps the other web mail clients have caught up) is the reasonably fast WAP access over my cell phone Web browser. Strips everything down to the bare minimum and works well.

Yes, this has become my prefered email service for my phone - the POP integration also works better than the others when I want compose "offline"
