- Weak keep: I was doing to vote delete based on the state of the article but then I found this [http://books.google.com/books?id=rWzb_ibIgyIC&pg=PA521&dq=%22XMail%22+-inpublisher:icon&as_brr=0&cd=3] which might be enough to save it and also provide some material to expand the article a bit. It seems that there are also some other software products and hosted services called XMail and these get most of the hits when you search, so we need to be careful to exclude those. Possibly some of these others are notable too. --DanielRigal (talk) 23:45, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
- Comment "XMail" is an X/11 mail client using BSD mail handling facilities [http://www.phy.ohiou.edu/computer/xwin/xfaq.html] - and any oldtime user of Unix as a desktop OS would be more familiar with the client than the new XMail server this article is talking about. 70.29.210.242 (talk) 04:02, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
:Indeed, the old Unix xmail is probably the more notable of the two. There is/was also a hosted service from O2 called XMail and there may also be other things called XMail too. This doesn't preclude this one being notable although it does make it harder to check. The book reference I link above definitely is about this particular XMail. --DanielRigal (talk) 10:08, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
