Subject: [vcf-midatlantic] oldest email address in the club Anyone still operating actively an email address from before 1995

I have been jeffj/at/panix/dot/com since 1991. I know the fellow with a slightly lower UID but he's not a VCF member. Before that, my emails were via my employer, but as a consultant I quickly realized the merit of an email that I could keep independent of my employer or client. I had email via Genie, Delphi, Prodigy but never Compuserve or AOL. Before it was PANIX, there was Big Electric Cat. A friend used that to access USENET before the Internet, back when most systems were "walled gardens". -- jeffj
