The only email I like in the browser is Gmail, personally, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't have a client anyway ๐ I use the Gmail app as well on my phone.
If I'm at a job that uses outlook, I prefer that in the client - most call centre jobs require multiple programs open and I found that having the email in the browser meant I missed stuff or it makes a noise (super distracting when on the phones) ๐ in a client I can mute it but it still looks at the taskbar and see whether it has the orange dot.
I think it all depends on the work you do, and how you grew up :)
That is one case when it would be handy. Do people link to things in those other programs in emails? And does it do what teams does where it takes you from Email > browser > Teams so it creates a bunch of redundant tabs anyway?
