Cantab.net webmail 2.0

A blast from the past!

Cantab.net was a popular web-based email service in the UK, particularly among students and academics. The service was launched in the late 1990s and was known for its simplicity, ease of use, and affordable pricing.

Cantab.net Webmail 2.0 was a significant upgrade to the original service, introducing a new user interface and a range of new features. Some of the key features of Cantab.net Webmail 2.0 included:

  1. Improved user interface: The new interface was designed to be more intuitive and user-friendly, with a cleaner layout and easier navigation.
  2. Enhanced search functionality: The search function was improved to allow users to search for emails by keyword, sender, or recipient.
  3. Spam filtering: Cantab.net introduced a spam filtering system to help protect users from unwanted emails.
  4. Virus scanning: The service included virus scanning to help prevent the spread of malware.
  5. Larger storage capacity: Users were given more storage space to store their emails.
  6. Support for HTML emails: Cantab.net Webmail 2.0 supported HTML emails, allowing users to send and receive emails with rich text formatting.
  7. Integration with other Cantab.net services: The service was integrated with other Cantab.net services, such as web hosting and domain registration.

Cantab.net Webmail 2.0 was a significant improvement over the original service and helped to establish Cantab.net as a leading provider of web-based email services in the UK. However, the service eventually ceased operations, and the domain name was sold to a new owner.
