Railagent hispeed mail

A blast from the past!

RailAgent Hispeed Mail was a popular email client for Windows, released in 1995 by RailSoft, a company based in the Netherlands. It was known for its speed, ease of use, and innovative features, such as:

  1. Fast email retrieval: RailAgent Hispeed Mail used a proprietary protocol to quickly retrieve emails from POP3 servers, making it one of the fastest email clients of its time.
  2. Offline email: Users could download emails to their local machine and read them offline, which was a major advantage before widespread internet connectivity.
  3. Customizable interface: The client allowed users to customize the layout, colors, and fonts to suit their preferences.
  4. Spam filtering: RailAgent Hispeed Mail included a built-in spam filter, which helped to reduce unwanted emails.

RailAgent Hispeed Mail was widely used in the mid-to-late 1990s, particularly among business users and professionals. However, with the rise of newer email clients and web-based email services, its popularity declined. The software is no longer actively maintained or supported, and it's now considered a relic of the past.
