Can I use third party webmail clients for example Google Gmail, Hotmail or Yahoo mail?
It is possible by making small changes to your Fatcow email setting. Add email forwarding to your email account and forward all incoming email to your Gmail for example. By this, all your email will arrived at Gmail and you can see it from your Gmail inbox.

Hi,
Web mail is great! But isn’t it supposed to be secure (as in https://)?
Please point me to documentation on how I can connect via https rather than http.
Thank you.
