Facebook email 2017
In 2017, Facebook announced that it would be phasing out its @facebook.com email service, which was launched in 2011. The company stated that it would no longer be accepting new email addresses or allowing users to create new accounts.
However, existing @facebook.com email addresses would still be active and users could continue to use them. Facebook also announced that it would be migrating its email service to its messaging app, Facebook Messenger.
Here are some key points about Facebook's email service in 2017:
- Facebook stopped accepting new @facebook.com email addresses.
- Existing @facebook.com email addresses remained active.
- Facebook migrated its email service to Facebook Messenger.
- Users could still use their @facebook.com email addresses to send and receive emails.
- Facebook encouraged users to switch to using Facebook Messenger for messaging and communication.
It's worth noting that Facebook's decision to phase out its email service was likely due to the growing popularity of messaging apps like Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, and others. The company may have seen email as a less popular and less relevant service compared to its messaging apps.
