Rediff.com India Ltd today announced access of Rediffmail in 11 Indian languages. The users will now be able to write e-mails in Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Oriya, Punjabi, Tamil and Telugu.
In order to send language e-mails, the user will type the message in phonetics and Rediffmail will automatically convert the message into the language selected. Language e-mails can be sent to any e-mail account irrespective of the recipient's e-mail address.
Rediff.com is one of the first Indian portals to offer this service to its e-mail users. This will enable a large number of non-English speaking Indians to communicate via e-mail. Recently, the company had launched news and messenger service - Rediff Bol, in four Indian languages.
Ajit Balakrishnan, chairman and chief executive officer, said, 'We are constantly striving to offer our users increased benefits of the internet through innovative and user-friendly services. The multiple e-mail language option will enable Rediffmail users to personalise and enrich their e-mail messages in the language of their choice.'
