Do you want a full page reload just because you deleted an email? Or flagged it? Or marked it as spam? Or even do you want your webmail in frames just to have a reader pane? Webmail is a great SPA candidate.

I do agree that perhaps email clients are a good SPA candidante, but at the same time most of that type of interaction can be done with a sprinkle of JS.
Because of a few simple interactions that are better without a page reload, people write the ENTIRE application on the frontend, with everything duplicated (modeling, validation, routing, error handling, etc).
