Which is the best email client to use with gmail? (Or should I just use gmail directly at gmail.com?)?

If your going to use the online client though I'd recommend getting google gears and maybe Chrome. That way you can still read your email when your offline. But for anything complex.. you'll need thunderbird.

Custome audio notifications (extension) or really wicked filters. Spell check... dictionary and Spell check... HTML and Plaintext support on the fly.. Return receipt options... Digital Signatures or Encryption. And threading messages is sometimes a pain which Gmail doesn't let you shut off.

I would recommend Mozilla Thunderbird but using Gmail itself is the best one to experience all the features of the service.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
