what is the benefit of imap?



Hello,

i have a "meta-question".

imap-issues are being discussed on this list quite frequently. i wonder what
the benefit of imap generally is?

if you have access to broadband flatrate internet (as many people in
agglomerations here in germany do) i can't think of the benefit of managing my
mails on a remote server. 

if you consider this question silly or off-topic please give me a hint where i
could find an answer. thanks.

jan
