You are basically correct, if you just want to try it then use the free version but you'll need to reply from the mail2web account. If you want to be able to reply with the gmail account you need the $1.99 account to set up a proxy so it looks like you are answering from gmail.

I don't remember how the original messaging plugin works, it may tell you something like 2 e-mails, 2 SMS but I don't remember. If you want something to show on the screen exactly what kind of message you received, I'd suggest PhoneAlarm.
