My first email address was in 1982 on Telecom Gold, which was British
Telecom's version of ITT Dialcom, an X.400 service. I can't remember
the original address, which is a pity because I remember it was a really
low number, but a few years later it got changed to MAG1001. I didn't
get an Internet address until ten years later, and until then I used
Telecom Gold and gateways, usually via Packet SwitchStream (X.25 dialup).
One of my favorite O'Reilly book titles is the one
that's hard to Google for:

I still have my copy of that :-)
