Electronic Mail (E-Mail) first occurred in 1965 or 1971 depending on who you ask.
According to guardian.com, “The very first version of what would become known as email was invented in 1965 at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) as part of the university s Compatible Time-Sharing System, which allowed users to share files and messages on a central disk, logging in from remote terminals.”
In 1971, Ray Tomlinson was the first to use the “@” symbol to send messages to people rather than just a computer. According to guardian.com, “American computer programmer Tomlinson arguably conceived the method of sending email between different computers across the forerunner to the internet, Arpanet, at the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa), introducing the “@” sign to allow messages to be targeted at certain users on certain machines.”
