Email was invented by Ray Tomlinson in 1971.
It was improved in 1972 to include multiple users.
On a related note, the world's first integrated email system was invented by Dr. V. A. Shiva Ayyadurai aka Dr. E-Mail from MIT. He designed the first email system in 1980.

This was before patents were issued for software which was treated similar to music, art or literary work.

Has anyone received hateful or derogatory email from another hubber? What did you do? I woke up with one this morning, while it is perfectly just to disagree with one's view on a subject, I don't believe it needed to be taken as far as "this hubber" did. Yes, I reported it to...
