I'm retired, and for well over 90% of the time, I collect all of my mail 
via POP3 on my desktop computer at home.  When I'm going to be away long 
enough for it to matter, such as when I'm house/dog sitting for Jerry 
Pournelle[1] down at Chaos Manor, I turn off my email client here, use 
the one on my laptop and transfer any email I needed to save from one 
box to the other when I get home.  I also use Gmail, but that mail I 
leave on their servers because it's simply the easiest way to do it. 
Back when I was working, I collected my work email at work, on their 
computer, and my home email at home on mine, making it even easier to 
leave my work at the office where it belonged.  I realize that this may 
be hard for you to understand, but there really are people who like to 
do things in a different way than you use and as long as their ways work 
for them, it's not up to you to judge them for how they like to work.
