This is only true some of the time. If you are a business user, on a company trip, using a company laptop, receiving email via a dial up VPN connection to your office, which restricts other activiy, then it IS easier to get email than to a web board.
As to the other point about users who don't use the board - they do use the board. But they only post when they're at home. They're on the road so much they want a way to keep up on the current discussions even if they can't reply.
