Lycos mail app

Lycos Mail was a free web-based email service provided by Lycos, a web portal and search engine company. The service was launched in the late 1990s and was popular among users who wanted a simple and easy-to-use email service.

Here are some key features of Lycos Mail:

  1. Free email accounts: Lycos Mail offered free email accounts with a @lycos.com address.
  2. Web-based interface: The service had a simple and intuitive web-based interface that allowed users to access their email accounts from any device with an internet connection.
  3. Storage space: Lycos Mail provided a generous amount of storage space, allowing users to store a large number of emails and attachments.
  4. Spam and virus protection: The service had built-in spam and virus protection to help keep users' inboxes safe and secure.
  5. Integration with other Lycos services: Lycos Mail was integrated with other Lycos services, such as Lycos Search and Lycos News, making it easy for users to access a range of online services from one place.

However, in 2012, Lycos announced that it would be discontinuing its email service, and users were given the option to migrate their accounts to other email services or delete their accounts. The Lycos Mail service is no longer available, and users who had accounts with the service are no longer able to access their email accounts.

It's worth noting that while Lycos Mail is no longer available, there are many other free email services available that offer similar features and functionality. Some popular alternatives include Gmail, Yahoo Mail, and Outlook.com.
