An engineer named Ray Tomlinson sent the first e-mail message in 1971
World's first email message was sent in 1971 between two computers. Mr. Tomlinson was the person, who created a computer program named SNDMSG, which sent a simple email message to a nearby computer through ARPANET. He was also the first person to put "@" in the email. He did that because this sign wasn't used that much anywhere else. The first email address was "tomlinson@bbn-tenexa." BBN was the name of Mr. Tomlinson's employer and "tenexa" was the name of the operating system that was used. What exactly was the first email message is lost.
Ray Tomlinson, the man who sent the world's first email (to himself, of course) wanted a symbol that was so weird it couldn't possibly appear in anyone's name; he chose the @ symbol.
The first email was sent in 1971 by computer engineer Ray Tomlinson in 1971, the email was simply a test message to himself. The email was sent from one computer to another computer sitting right beside it in Cambridge, Massachusetts, but it traveled via ARPANET, a network of computers that was the precursor to the internet.

1971! The first email was sent by a very bright chap named Ray Tomlinson who, way back in 1971, developed the software that allowed messages to be sent between computers. He was then working at an American firm that was helping develop the forerunner of the Internet. Unfortunately, Tomlinson can't remember what he wrote in the very first test email - although he has suggested it might simply have been the word "testing". Tomlinson also randomly decided to use "@" to designate email addresses - an off-the-cuff decision that probably saved the once obscure symbol from extinction.
The very first email was sent 35 years ago. Ray Tomlinson sent that first email message, and it was sent from one computer, across the ARPANET, to another computer---sitting right next to the first one. What was the message? Something like Alexander Graham Bell's "Watson, come here. I need you"? Perhaps some geeky-er version of "one giant leap for mankind"? Nope. According to Mr. Tomlinson, "The test messages were entirely forgettable and I have, therefore, forgotten them. Most likely the first message was QUERTYIOP or something similar." Today, something like 60 billion emails are sent every day (more stats).
