Most folks here, and where I've worked before, do.
Yes, the desktop has 2 23" monitors of its own. You just can't have too much screen space... Or maybe it is just that I'm not organized and I like to leave windows open. Or cached efficiently, the way I think of it.
And actually, the webmail interface on current exchange servers isn't that bad either.
Actually, it is - when I delete a message, it moves to the next, not to the list.
You must not have the same version. I get a 3-pane layout so it's not a choice of list or message. In fact I think it is exactly the same layout as the default in outlook 10, including the search box at the top of the header list.
But I really don't like webmail, even if that's what I'm using for this account from work (keeping my mail off their computers).
Gmail and current exchange versions aren't much like old-style webmail. There are still some slight differences like the search-as-you-type in the outlook/tbird apps, where the web counterparts wait until you finish, but multi-select, drag/drop and other app-like operations work in the exchange web interface, and gmail has a lot of configuration options about what to do next when you delete, etc.
