In 1999 people didn’t know what email was? How old were these people? Honest question. I’m extremely surprised by this claim.

- mywittyname 9y agoYou've Got Mail came out in 1998 and it was a box office hit. People knew what email was for several years before that.
- reaperducer 9y agoBut "You've Got Mail" wasn't about e-mail. It was about AOL. Remember it took years for people to realize that there was more out there than just AOL.
- reaperducer 9y agoThis was a group of about 30 people in their 20's and 30's, with maybe five or so in their 40's. Average, every-day retail workers mostly. In a mid-sized city. I know the date is right because I only lived there one year.
