Penny,

In order for the interface to be improved, the overall interface to  
the web would have to be improved.  I'd say that all things being  
equal, anything you can do not on the web lowers the learning curve  
and the level of capability need to accomplish it.  On the other  
hand, it does get easier with practice.

Thank you everyone for your insight into the webmail software's.  It  
seems
that unless you are a sophisticated computer/screen reader user, and  
willing
to take the time and effort to learn to jump through hoops, that webmail
software is not an equally accessible way of communication for college
students.  Hopefully, designers will improve the interface in the near
future.

Thanks again, Penny
