Hello Geir,
While I am looking forward to seeing two-factor authentication being implemented, I am much averse to having to use a mobile for that purpose for two reasons. First, it will entail costs -- either for the users or for Runbox (and I do not assume that Runbox will not levy them from their customes in one way or another). Second, I do not want to have to use my mobile every time I want to sign into my email account, even less so when travelling as this may entail even more fees for me.
My favourite would be something that works 'offline' like the already often-mentioned grid of one-time passwords that one can print off from their trusted private computer.
Regards,
Gecko
