Batelco launches a new, user friendly email web interface for its customers

The new interactive flash-based email interface from Batelco brings the best of two worlds; a host of fantastic features of client-based email in a dynamic web-based experience.

Apart from the advanced email communication functionality, the new multimedia features include:
• Interactive Calendar: - for easy scheduling and sending of invitations to events and meetings
• Secure Instant Messaging: - to allow efficient and cost effective online chat with contacts using Batelco email accounts
• News Links: - You can stay updated with daily news through subscribing to the required news links via RSS (Really Simple Syndication) and much more.

The new look and feel service is now available for customers to try it out. Customer can simply access Batelco inet mail (www.inetmail.com.bh) and click on the link at the bottom of the page (Try Batelco new email web interface Beta). Customers may log-in using their existing Batelco email account username and password. There is no extra configuration required. Both versions - old and new - will be available while Batelco assesses customer feedback.

In the near future, customers will be able to upload their photos, music and videos on their own personal webspace and they can also create their own blog.

Customers interested to get additional e-mail addresses from Batelco with their full personal name, company name, trademark name or any other extended name up to 25 characters can send a request from their existing Batelco email account to e.request@batelco.com.bh.

"We anticipate a very positive customer response to the new and improved email interface as it offers sought after features and is simple to navigate,"

said Batelco General Manager Media & Government Relations Ahmed Al Janahi.
