Godsownman has the right answer. Like many "microsoft" technologies (including their first successful product, MS-DOS), hotmail was created by someone else and then bought by microsoft.

As far as I can tell, there isn't an e-mail. You have to submit myths at the forum, meaning you have to sign up for a Discovery account. If you really want to, I'd do it--it's free and shouldn't take to long.

Ray Tomlinson in 1972\n\n"... Ray Tomlinson is credited with inventing email in 1972. Like many of the Internet inventors, Tomlinson worked for Bolt Beranek and Newman as an ARPANET contractor. He picked the @ symbol from the computer keyboard to denote sending messages from one computer to another. So then, for anyone using Internet standards, it was simply a matter of nominating name-of-the-user@name-of-the-computer. Internet pioneer Jon Postel, who we will hear more of later, was one of the first users of the new system, and is credited with describing it as a "nice hack". It certainly was, and it has lasted to this day. "

Berners-Lee Answers !\n\n- Did you invent the Internet?\nNo, no, no!\n\nWhen I was doing the WWW, most of the bits I needed were already done.\n\nVint Cerf and people he worked with had figured out the Internet Protocol, and also the Transmission Control Protocol.\n\nPaul Mockapetris and friends had figured out the Domain Name System.\n\nPeople had already used TCP/IP and DNS to make email, and other cool things. So I could email other people who maybe would like to help work on making the WWW.\n\nI didn't invent the hypertext link either. The idea of jumping from one document to another had been thought about lots of people, including Vanevar Bush in 1945, and by Ted Nelson (who actually invented the word hypertext). Bush did it before computers really existed. Ted thought of a system but didn't use the internet. Doug Engelbart in the 1960's made a great system just like WWW except that it just ran on one [big] computer, as the internet hadn't been invented yet. Lots of hypertext systems had been made which just worked on one computer, and didn't link all the way across the world.\n\nI just had to take the hypertext idea and connect it to the TCP and DNS ideas and -- ta-da! -- the World Wide Web.\n\n\n> http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/Kids\n\n> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Berners-Lee\n\nGood luck!

I recently worked with someone who doesn't know how to use email.  I witnessed him ask a co-worker to show him how to email someone.  You could email him, but you wouldn't get an email back...he actually didn't know how.

I would say Tim Berners Lee, who basically invented the World Wide Web.  He also created the first web browser and currently directs the World Wide Web Consortium.

If there is not any,  there ought to be one. To begin with: no hiding behind assumed names, nicks, and numbers/signs...!  Communications having become so quick, yet the emailers have no time for greetings, no time to write full words, no time to compose a grammatically complete sentence. The language is being ruined. The manners are put to dust. The etiquettes forgotten. The spam becoming a profession.
