E-mail started in 1965 as a way for multiple users of a time-sharing mainframe computer to communicate; although the exact history is murky, among the first systems to have such a facility were SDC's Q32 and MIT's CTSS.

E-mail was quickly extended to become network e-mail, allowing users to pass messages between different computers. The éarly history of network e-mail is also murky; the AUTODIN system may have been the first allowing electronic text messages to be transferred between users on different computers, in 1966, but it is possible the SAGE system had something similar some time before.

The ARPANET computer network made a major contribution to the evolution of e-mail. There is one report  which indicates experimental inter-system e-mail transfers on it shortly after its création, in 1969. Ray Tomlinson initiated the use of the @ sign to separate the names of the user and their machine in 1972. The common report that he "invented" e-mail is an exaggeration, although his éarly e-mail programs SNDMSG and READMAIL were very important. The ARPANet significantly incréased the popularity of e-mail, and it became the "killer app" of the ARPANET.
