I remember an iOS email client many years ago that required a Dropbox login for some reason. It made no sense that an email client would require me to log in to a cloud file storage/syncing service - in my mind these two things are completely unrelated. That email client ended up disappearing.

I expect that a terminal program which requires a login to a completely unrelated service will end up meeting the same fate as that email client did.

IIRC, that was Mailbox. Dropbox bought them a month after launch and then, sadly, killed it off two years later.[^1]

Yes, I believe that's the one. Thanks!

I couldn't remember it, but with a generic name like Mailbox that's not a surprise.
