The first spam email was sent on May 1st, 1978 by a DEC marketing representative to every ARPANET address on the west coast of the United States.
Here’s some explanation by Einar Stefferud, who was one of those who were there at the time:
It was sent from SNDMSG which had limited space for To and CC and Subject fields. The poor soul that typed in the announcement, also (in those days) had to type in all the addresses, and this person was not trained in the use of SNDMSG.
So, she/he started typing addresses into the Subject which overflowed into the TO header, which overflowed into the CC header, and then into the Body, and then the actual message was finally typed in;-)… So, lots of intended recipients did not receive it, including me as I was then STEF@SRI-KA.
Obviously here was no such thing as quality control in play.
Thus it is some kind of classic example of early screw ups…
But the reaction was the same as today’s reaction to SPAM …\Stef
