History

In May 2005, Bloomba was licensed to Corel Corporation and re-released as WordPerfect Mail, a component of the WordPerfect Office family. Bloomba's focus was fast searching of email. According to PC Magazine, it was faster than Outlook in searching email. It could be installed beside an installation of Outlook or Eudora without interfering with the operation of the other email client. Bloomba was co-developed by Chennai-based iSoftTech, a software outsourcing firm engaged by Stata Labs.
