No, it's not. Not a bit. One of the things my organization does is
manage the email systems for our corporation (not a small one). and we
set policy on email clients quite simply: "here are the ones we
support. If you use something else, we wish you luck. If it doesn't
work right, we hope you can fix it".
True, we can't FORCE them to use only supported software. Nor do I
think you should try. but that doesn't make failures of that
unsupported stuff MY (our) problem. It could well be there's a good
reason we don't recommend you use it, after all....
