Maybe you could point out to them that all the major webmail (and
forum) providers don't expect you to use the web interface on your
phone. They provide alternate access, usually with a native app (or
standard protocol) of some sort.
Or, if the phone is like someone's Android tablet I had a play with.
It's supplied mail app uses *their* (device's manufacturer's) server to
connect to yours via standard protocols. It was the only way to use it.
And a lovely security hole.
You would have to install some other mail app to do it any other way, or
use webmail.
If you're implementing a service as your job, I think you'd need to find
out whether any of the users are stuck with hard limits about how they
can access mail.

Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is
no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages
posted to the mailing list.
Next time your service provider asks you to reboot your equipment, ask
them to reboot theirs, first.
