From: Steve Jobs. "Great idea, thank you."
"In 1991, I was a new Systems Engineer at NeXT, a company founded by Steve Jobs, and I naively requested the email alias steve@next.com for myself."
"NeXTMail was revolutionary at the time, allowing multimedia features like audio attachments embedded in emails, a stark contrast to conventional command line email."
In October 1991, the author became a Systems Engineer at NeXT, a company founded by Steve Jobs. During this time, NeXTMail was celebrated for its innovative features, including audio attachments in emails, which marked a significant technological leap. The author noticed the unused email alias steve@next.com, and out of curiosity, requested it. Surprisingly, this request was approved automatically, leading to a noteworthy moment when Steve Jobs himself sent a response, acknowledging the author’s idea.
