Seeking the name of an old email application

MetaVapour · 1 Jun 2023, 01:48 AM

First of all, I just found this forum and I am delighted that this forum and community is here and active. Secondly, in my hunt of a specific email client, I am sure someone here could help. Hopefully this is suitable for this board. I originally posted this request to the Reddit TOMT, but the information is below.

I am trying to remember a specific email client. I am sure someone will know this immediately but it's escaping me. It may have been a CD-ROM, webmail, or a downloaded application. I'm unclear on this. The purpose of it was to create highly visual emails. This included features, which at the time as a child, I found mind-blowing.

Things I think I remember, but may be Mandela Effect, so take with a pinch of salt:

- I believe the branding of the application was predominantly orange.

- There was the ability to create email templates with borders, images, animations, and even sound.

- The name may have been formatted "<blank> Mail", e.g., Super Mail or Turbo Mail.

- There may have been a mascot, which was purple in colour, but I may be confusing this with Bonzi Buddy. I checked to see if Bonzi Buddy has a webmail client but couldn't find one.

- I am UK based.

- I believe at the time my internet provider was NTL.

- It may be an application from the 90s, but was very likely being used late 90s or early 00s.

- The computer was a Windows PC.

from your hints, I was thinking it's fsmail.net

I don't recall seeing FS Mail before. I just tried searching it up and seems it's completely gone. Which is similar to Incredimail. Not even a Wikipedia entry for that.

Incredimail stopped on March 20, 2020.

In my opinion Outlook.com or Windows Mail App. Outlook desktop is pretty pricy. Although there are good offers on the full office suite around at the moment.
