In case you were unaware of it, GMail & Yahoo Mail both support
encrypted POP3 & IMAP access to your mail, so you can use the E-Mail
client of your choice if you want to. I use Thunderbird with my both my
GMail and Yahoo mail accounts and it works just fine. That way I can
easily do quote-and-reply properly, and I don't have to look at their
ads since I'm not using their web interface. Bonus! :-)
If you want to know how to configure a mail program for use with your
GMail account, feel free to contact me off-list (since that's really not
a Debian thing; I don't want to clutter up the list with that discussion).
