==History==
In May 2005, Bloomba was licensed to Corel Corporation and re-released as [[WordPerfect]] Mail, a component of the WordPerfect Office family. Bloomba's focus was fast searching of email.  According to [[PC Magazine]], it was faster than Outlook in searching email. It could be installed beside an installation of Outlook or Eudora without interfering with the operation of the other email client. Bloomba was co-developed by [[Chennai]]-based iSoftTech, a software outsourcing firm engaged by Stata Labs.
