>> You've been sold a bill of goods.  Einar didn't "create email", and 
certainly not on a Sun workstation.

Maybe what he actually said was, "This was the computer I which I created
email," as in, "This is the computer on which I happened the SEND my
emails".... Maybe someone just took his use of "created" a bit too
literally.... Think about it.... By clicking "new" and then typing and
clicking "send", I just created (an) email.  :)
