[Asia Economy Reporter Buaeri] Kakao announced on the 13th that it will launch the 'Kakao Mail' service in a PC version.

Launched as a beta service in November last year, Kakao Mail is a new mail service based on Kakao accounts that allows users to easily send and receive emails within KakaoTalk.

It supports efficient mailbox management through smart sorting folders, and when receiving mail from friends set as favorites, users can receive notifications via the KakaoTalk channel ‘Jordi’.

The new Kakao Mail PC version beta service is characterized by expanding the platform to increase user accessibility.

In particular, it additionally supports personalized settings such as ▲creating mailboxes ▲detailed spam blocking settings ▲mail list view options, which were not provided in the existing mobile version, as well as functions like ▲importing/exporting address books ▲importing external mail.

Starting from the 20th, mail notifications will be sequentially upgraded to allow users to check parts of the mail body content along with chatbot functions, and simple replies will also be possible.

The Kakao Mail PC version can be accessed through a web browser, and any user with a Kakao account can sign up for and use the mail service after account integration.

Kakao plans to continue service updates, including providing access to Kakao Mail through the KakaoTalk PC version in the first half of the year to further enhance accessibility.

A Kakao representative said, "Considering the continuous inquiries and demands from users for the addition of a PC version after the service launch, we are introducing it along with various new features," adding, "Along with the basic functions of Kakao Mail, we will satisfy users’ needs through close integration with tool-type services within KakaoTalk such as the drawer and calendar."
