I used to run my own mail server but keeping track of the spam updates and clearing out the false positives and just the whole bother of it was a pain that I no longer wanted to deal with. Plus the thought of developing a custom web interface was too daunting. So, I went with GoDaddy's mail services. I just point my MX record to their servers and let them deal with the spam and stuff. Plus their browser mail interface is slick. I have 5 email accounts (for my whole family) with dozens of alias's and 1GB of total space (to divide amoung the 5 mailboxes) for just $19/year. Worth it in the long run...and I don't have to have stupid email domain names. (this yahoo account is just for my fun stuff...my main accounts are on different domains)
Just an FYI...

Email is inherently cross-platform. The client you use has no bearing on your ability to keep mail on the server to have it accessible to multpile clients. But to each their own.

If that is the case, this is a serious oversight in Thunderbird. I do suspect, however, that is not in fact the case, and that a little RTFM can fix the problem.
