I think you are mistaken. Certainly the milnet/arpanet email was flying

I'm sure you could check the uucp maps - a quick google search shows
apple.UUCP existed in 84.
I was using uucp email in 84 and I could swear there was stuff coming in
and out of apple. I don't we sent anything confidential back and forth
but I'm pretty sure I got personal stuff from people at apple.
I was sure sending regular email to a girlfriend at at&t in '83 :-)

wrote an email to steve jobs to inform him
Interesting story, but I find it hard to believe that emailing outside
of academic and military circles was done much at all back in 1985.
