You meant Microsoft Mail!

Microsoft Mail was a proprietary email client developed by Microsoft in the 1980s and 1990s. It was designed to work with Microsoft's operating systems, including MS-DOS and Windows.

Here are some key features of Microsoft Mail:

  1. Client-server architecture: Microsoft Mail used a client-server architecture, where the email client (the user's computer) connected to a mail server to send and receive emails.
  2. POP3 and SMTP support: Microsoft Mail supported both POP3 (Post Office Protocol version 3) and SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) protocols, allowing users to access and send emails using these standards.
  3. Address book: Microsoft Mail had a built-in address book that allowed users to store and manage their contacts.
  4. Email composition: Users could compose and send emails using Microsoft Mail's built-in editor, which supported basic formatting options like bold, italic, and underline.
  5. Attachments: Microsoft Mail allowed users to attach files to their emails, including documents, images, and other types of files.
  6. Security: Microsoft Mail included basic security features, such as password protection and encryption, to help protect user emails.

Microsoft Mail was widely used in the 1980s and 1990s, particularly in business environments. However, with the rise of the internet and web-based email services like Hotmail and Yahoo! Mail, Microsoft Mail's popularity declined. Today, Microsoft Mail is no longer supported or developed by Microsoft, and users have largely migrated to more modern email clients like Outlook and Gmail.
