Which doesn't keep mail on the original server, so you always have to use Gmail. (and might not be allowed if it comes to corporate mail)

It's really much harder to do this with other webmail clients than it is with a proper offline client.

nobody wants forwarding if you want to use the 'replay as' feature. Plus it can get cluttered but with a mail client you got them all separated

Yeah? Now reply to someone with the appropriate From/Reply-To addresses from that mashed up gmail account. Thunderbird does this seamlessly, figuring it out from who the email was To if possible. That's why I still use it.

The Gmail web app can do the exact same thing: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/22377?hl=en
Fair enough. I wonder when they added this, it definitely didn't used to be able to do that.

It's 5+ years old. I've been using it since at least the late 2000s.
You can add POP/IMAP and SMTP accounts and read, write and send emails directly in Gmail with the proper headers (i.e. no the "delivered by gmail.com" message on your emails.)
I can't use my domain with Google Apps now, so I use my domain registrar's mailboxes and SMTP servers from my Gmail account for the same effect.
This is quite easy to do in Gmail (and presumably other webmail clients) with forwarding.
