A version of email was included in the original DARPA version of the
internet. This was early 1970s. In fact, when we played with and
evaluated it at Lawrence Berkeley Lab, our report noted that the
internet would probably not be very useful for exchanging scientific
files (as had been the original purpose). However, we did note that
email might become very useful. ;-)

Twitter, claiming that he is the inventor of email. He doesn't look
like he's nearly old enough. I thought it was Ray Tomlinson. Looks
like he's trying to create some press for his Senate run.
Anyone older that me here that can either confirm or deny? Thanks!
