Feb 9, 2006 : Webmail.us Launches Company Directory

📅 February 9, 2006 - Email hosting provider Webmail.us (webmail.us) announced on Wednesday it has released a new service, the Webmail company directory. The company directory is targeted to companies with fewer than 200 employees, but Webmail plans to scale the feature to support larger companies.

The Webmail company directory provides email administrators and users a number of capabilities. Email administrators can create multiple directories across multiple domains, as well as the ability to specify which users should be included in each directory.

The address book provides users with access to up-to-date contact information for all users in the directory. Finally, the address book's "My Profile" section enables users to view and manage their own contact information, if permitted by the email administrator.

Webmail provides hosting services to small and geographically dispersed businesses. The company and its private-label reseller partners offer email hosting that eliminates the need for email-related software, hardware, and security services.

In December, Webmail.us introduced a Web calendar and online task manager.
