Yup.  That's what I meant.  :-)

CompuServe has come up with an interface similar to this recently, but
currently it only supports IBM (and maybe MAC) stuff.

For Amiga users on CIS, there's WHAP! which can let you compose all your
messages offline, mark which files you want to download, set up files to
upload, check your mail, etc.  Really nice graphic interface too.  Many
Amiga folks on CIS use this.
