Even though there was no such statement was given by Google or Gmail yet again many people started believing on the fact that Gmail is going to be sunsetting soon. In order to clarify this confusion, Gmail really has to come up with a clarification post on X stating “Gmail is here to stay”. Adding to the fact that Gmail’s web look from January 2024 has became even more attractive than before in fact, Gmail is continue to be evolving in terms of its service, graphic designs, security and the technology too.

Although it can be seen as a fun post from some user’s point of view but also on the other hand some user’s can take it as a serious note and such emails could also lead to be a phishing emails causing some real harm to the users.

Interestingly, both the above incidents took place on around the same date which was 23rd February. However, it’ll be nice to see Musk’s Xmail which can come up with some new features, technology and user experiences too. This Xmail launch can definitely create a competition for Google’s Gmail which in return can provide some awesome benefits in terms features and technology for Gmail and Xmail users. This can literally make user’s experience more interesting and efficient from the email services’ point of view.

Is Xmail already being run by others?

You may have notices when you search for Xmail on search engines like google that there’s already many Xmail named email providers are there in place. This may create a bit challenge in naming the email service providing app as Xmail as there’s already some people around the globe are running the email providing service named after Xmail. Please find the below screenshot for the same:

These pre-existing email service providers named after Xmail may even become a threat if they turned out to send some kind of phishing or malicious or even spammy emails to the X users. These security factors could really become a challenge for Xmail developers and for the X (formerly known as Twitter) company as well.
