Reach-a-Mail

Light, free email client that you can use from your USB drive if you so desire. It's stripped down with none of the fanciness of Outlook or Thunderbird, but if you submit work by email a lot you will find it absolutely essential. It works perfectly with gmail (unlike many other "light" email clients) and you can configure it merely to send your mail if you want to want to keep track of your inbox online.
