With the release of the new Chromium-based Opera, the Norwegian developer dislocated the mail component from the web browser and provided it as a standalone product.

Today, the company rolls out the first stable build for their email client; it remained as simple as before as the modifications available in this standalone version are quite subtle.

As such, the layout and the main features users were accustomed to in the built-in client from the browser have been preserved.

There is the tabbed interface that allows quick and easy access to multiple messages; it still incorporates a feed reader to fetch news from your subscriptions.

Furthermore, messages can be viewed in threads, which makes for easy tracking of a conversation. One thing that’s new is the availability of the “Contacts” button in a more prominent position.
