Big advantage of using an email client is that mail, both received and sent is stored locally on your PC. You'll never loose it if the ISP goes belly up, you have no internet, or you change plus you can easily copy/update mailboxes from machine to machine or backup.
Yes absolutely i use Outlook 2019, my point was actually using an ISP email is not a good idea anymore for important stuff atleast, i see so many posts over the years where the ISP has done something to try and fix an issue and it has lost the customers emails or address or the customer forgot to transfer when moving ISPs.
I recommend moving away from an ISP email for most of your stuff, move to something like gmail or outlook because if it goes tits up or you move isp you can quickly get stuffed.
A good idea.

I learnt years ago not to use an ISP email. I now have 3 independent ones that follow me wherever I go ISP wise. Contact lists are also synced across all 3.

Yes my gmail contact list is safe as that is online, so any mobile device gets its contacts from there rather than a storing on a mobile sim.
Some people still store all there contacts on the sim!
