Opera Email

It's funny how online it takes a really long time to figure out that Opera no longer has an email component in their browser. Can someone tell me what the most recent version of Opera for Windows was that supported email? I assume it's available for download online somewhere?
Thanks in advance

@leocg So there was never a standalone mail client? I have this vague memory of reading that the development split off from the browser team

@leocg Whereas it is no longer "under development", are security updates still being provided?

Thanks, Leo. Sort of reminds me of how Mozilla jettisoned Thunderbird which was turned over to an online community to continue its development and updating. I think the Mozilla Corp. saw it as something most users no longer needed or wanted. it's one of the mysteries (for me at least) as to why Vivaldi caters to a very small community that want a complete suite. This idea is so yesterday... so 90's in thinking. I suppose there will always be users who want such things but for today, I believe most users want online email clients easily checked from many devices and sometimes not even their own devices. I can see why Opera would dump their email client.
