Verizon Enhances Email Offering


Communications company Verizon has announced that it is offering its customers much larger amounts of email storage.

Subscribers to the company's FiOS product will now benefit from "an unlimited retention period" and the ability to access their email accounts from any computer. As well as an email account with four gigabytes of storage capacity, customers will also have the option of accessing their accounts via a wireless phone. Peter Castleton, director of Verizon consumer broadband services, said: "Personal email, including digital photo, music and video files, is a critical part of everyday life and we're making it easier for our customers to conveniently access and manage their mail."

Spam filtering and advanced virus protection will continue to be available to customers using the new service, Verizon claims. The company has now made its FiOS service available in 16 states and is continuing to expand it constantly. Verizon states that FiOS is an ancient Irish word for knowledge.
