History
[edit | edit source]In 1998, Pascal Voyat and Philippe Lenoir created Francemail, a French-language e-mail service accessible via the Internet, Minitel and telephone, which was renamed to FranceMel the following year. In 1999, the service was acquired by the Lagardère Group and renamed to NetCourrier.
In 2007, the two original creators bought the service back through their company Mail Object.
In 2008, NetCourrier launched a Web 2.0 messaging service based on Mail Object technology. In 2010, it launched services tailored to children and families.
In 2012, NetCourrier was renamed to Net-C. Net-C consolidates net-c.com, netcourrier.com, netcmail.com, netc.eu, netc.fr, francemel.fr and other domain names. In 2015, Net-C also consolidated Alinto's consumer messaging services: lavache.com, emailasso.net, inmano.com, brusseler.com.
In 2019, Net-C acquired the free, open-source messaging service Mailoo.org. Net-C was renamed to its current name, Mailo.
