CompuServe Email Account – 2 Effective Ways to Access and Recover Your Account

| Updated on March 1, 2024

If we talk about one of the oldest internet companies, it is CompuServe. The company dates back to 1969 when there was no Facebook and Google; perhaps the first major commercial online service in the USA. Since 1980, CompuServe has been letting people communicate with the help of its email service and that made it really popular among the netizens. It even got famous by hosting the first WYSIWYG email content editor; this helped users exchange new mail and related content on the internet.

This happened even before CompuServe was purchased by AOL; now, it is a subsidiary of AOL and is still operating as an internet portal, providing email service, and so on. The email service can be easily accessed via the web, mobile, or through third-party email clients that use IMAP protocol such as Netscape Messenger or Outlook.
