Bigpond.com supports IMAP / SMTP

Bigpond's webmail interface is not necessary now! If you'd rather not use Outlook Express, Apple Mail, or Mozilla Thunderbird, you can use Mailspring or Outlook Express. It can be helpful to work with desktop email applications. When you are disconnected from the internet, your email remains accessible on your computer.
