BSNL had launched free E-Mail Address service in 8 Indian Languages for its broadband users on 21st December 2016. BSNL broadband users are empowered to open an email ID in DataMail app in their own languages. When mail box exceeds the free storage space offered, it becomes tedious for users to manage their old mails as they will have to either delete it or will have to look for paid storage space. While most of the email service providers offer 20 GB free storage space, this problem occurs frequently in a year for the mail users. BSNL’s 100 GB storage space is being offered with the broadband plan in free of cost with is in true sense world’s first initiative for the customers ease.
