Is mail.com microsoft

Mail.com is not a Microsoft-owned service. Mail.com is a free web-based email service provided by 1&1 Ionos, a German-based web hosting and cloud services company.

Mail.com was launched in 1995 and was one of the first free web-based email services. Over the years, it has undergone several changes in ownership and management. In 2007, 1&1 Ionos acquired Mail.com from the German media company United Internet.

While Mail.com is not a Microsoft-owned service, it does offer some Microsoft-related features, such as integration with Microsoft Outlook and support for Microsoft Office Online. However, Mail.com is a separate entity from Microsoft and operates independently.

It's worth noting that Microsoft does offer its own free web-based email service, Outlook.com, which is a popular alternative to Mail.com.
