Today we have successfully deployed a new, powerful database server that forms the new “heart” of the Runbox system. This has substantially improved the overall performance of the service and re-establishes Runbox as a professional, efficient email hosting service. We hope you notice it too! 
Runbox Chat is an instant messaging service accessible directly from your browser, allowing you to communicate in real-time with friends, colleagues, and associates on any other chat network.There’s no software to download or install to use Runbox Chat, and it’s compatible with all major chat networks such as Google Talk, MSN, Yahoo! Messenger, AIM, ICQ, and IRC.
Please see the Chat help page for more information, or just click Chat in the main menu.
