Our Company

About Us

We started developing software in 1989 and then incorporated Fookes Software seven years later in Geneva, Switzerland. In 2008, it became a Limited (Ltd) company owned by its parent, Fookes Holding Ltd. Eric Fookes is the founder and CEO of both companies, now based in Charmey in the beautiful Swiss Prealps.

Fookes Software received its first prestigious award in 1998 for the NoteTab Pro programmable text editor. A groundbreaking product at the time, NoteTab Pro won best application at the PC Magazine Shareware Awards (USA), multiple SIAF “People’s Choice” awards, and distinctions from PC World, Microsoft, and WUGNET.

In 1999, Fookes Software’s focus shifted to email processing. In 2002, we released E-mail Examiner, our first email tool for the forensics community. Aid4Mail followed in 2005 and quickly became a must-have tool for email. In 2016, Aid4Mail won a European IT and Software Excellence Award and is now an industry leader in email recovery, collection, and conversion. 

Our experience processing email data spans over two decades – longer than any other email forensics and discovery tool! Our clients include government and law enforcement agencies, Fortune 500 companies, law firms, top universities, international organizations, and individuals in over 100 countries worldwide.
