If you like ATT, you can stay with them and T'bird will handle getting and sending your mail through them without involving their web interface, and providing the basic safety mechanisms. If you would like to change to another email service, that is relatively easy, too. (I won't recommend the service that I use unless requested; a private or public request and/or response is acceptable from anyone on this list.)

It can use either the old POP (Post Office Protocol) or the newer IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) to fetch the mail to be read.
