Well, I use Thunderbird because it supports Gmail accounts out of the box. But I wish I could use Mutt or similar, alas Gmail requires that I need to enable 2FA and s/<google account password>/<specific app password>/ in order to access Gmail via Mutt. I currently steer clear from 2FA, because once upon a time in 2018 I screwed up (locked-out) from my older account, which IMO mission-critical., for I couldn't pass all possible verification methods for that. So I created new account one in about Día de Kartini (Kartini's day).
And yes, Google/Yahoo/MS have webmail interface for their mail services (Gmail/YahooMail/Outlook), but for purposes for sending to vger.kernel.org, these above are rubbish because they genereated HTML emails, and vger hate HTML emails.
